Should You Buy the 2025 Acura Integra?

Reliability is good, and this is a sound used compact sedan. Against other 2025 sedans it lands close to average, so it does not stand out in its class. Within the Integra line it is among the stronger of four scored model years. Owners filed just 2 complaints, and federal crash tests gave it 5 of 5 stars.

Steering is the area to watch. Both federal recalls on this year are in steering, and owners who reported steering difficulties said the trouble started around 48,000 to 50,000 miles. The data does not say what the recalls fix, so read the recall notices themselves. Independent repair-cost data puts yearly repairs at about $801 for the model.

Check the VIN in federal recall records and confirm both steering recalls were completed. Ask for service records on any steering work. The 2024 rates worse, with 61 complaints and 5 recalls. The 2026 looks about the same, with 1 complaint and no recalls, though its record is short.

Compared to the 2026 Acura Integra, which scored 2 points higher. See also the 2024 Acura Integra for an earlier comparison.

2025-07-07

The driver seat is not made to be at appropriate lowering and lifting levels for driver safety in drives. It should allow for 120 degree angles but doesn't. SINCE leasing this vehicle my circulation has slowed and I am experiencing daily leg cramps and foot pain. It can dangerously cause blood clots if I don't get out of this vehicle soon. It's been about 8 months and I've been getting worse. I wobble when I walk now from the pain in both legs. I've reported this to my doctor and I have no medical blood tests that signify a reason for this pain. The seat hits the back of my knee. Bending my leg at the proper level causes me to have to use my ankle in awkward positions which is now causing my achilles to over-tighten and my heel to hurt. Others complain of the seats as well with similar issues in Acura Integra forums. This car is making me sick and I have no other recourse. I may need to begin a lawsuit if I cannot get them to take this car back due to this defect. I miss days from work to recuperate from the pain at times or I suffer through it. In the RDX and MDX I had no problem. I never suspected this car would do this to me.
