2016 Honda Civic

2016 AC STOPPED WORKING IN SEPTEMBER 2019. WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN MARCH 2019 WITH ONLY 23K MILES ON IT. WE RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA IN NOVEMBER 2019 ABOUT A FACTORY DEFECT CONCERNING THE AC. WE TOOK IT IN AND WAS CHARGED OVER $400 FOR A LEAK TEST. NO LEAK WAS FOUND, THEY PUT IN SOME DYE AND NOW TODAY ON MAY 12TH, 2020 THE AC IS BLOWING WARM AIR AGAIN. NOW I'M DOING RESEARCH ON THE ISSUE AND HAVE FOUND MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. I HOPE HONDA STEPS UP WHEN TAKE IT IN TOMORROW. *TR

AIR COMPRESSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT 26,000 MILES AND COST $1200 AT THE DEALER. THE A/C WAS BLOWING HOT AIR. I LIVE IN FLORIDA SO THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND NOT SAFE FOR CHILDREN OR ELDERLY. I HAVE HAD THE CAR SINCE DAY ONE AND RELIGIOUSLY MAINTAIN AND TAKE CARE OF THE VEHICLE. THE MAN AT THE DEALER SAID THE CONDENSER IS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT WAS THE COMPRESSOR. A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH SHOWS THAT 2016 HONDA CIVICS HAVE MASSIVE NUMBERS OF BOTH CONDENSER AND COMPRESSOR FAILURES, LEAKING FREON INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE PART OF HONDA. *TR

OUR CIVIC RAN OUT OF FREON LITERALLY AT 36,100 MILES ON OUR WAY TO LAS VEGAS FOR A WEDDING WHERE IT WAS 110 DEGREES ALL WEEKEND.AC STOPPED WORKING!! TOOK TO DEALER THEY DID A DIYE TEST THEY TOLD US COULDN'T FIND ANY LEAKS I HAD TO PAY FOR THE FREON TO BE FILLED BACK UP AGAIN THEY GAVE ME A FORM FROM AMERICAN HONDA TO REQUEST MY REFUND THEY DENIED IT WHICH I COULDN'T BELIEVE SO ALL THE FREON WENT INTO THE ATMOSPHERE THAT'S AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD- 9 MONTHS LATER NOW TODAY APRIL 2020 THE CAR AC WENT HOT AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THERE WAS NO FREON NOW THEY SAID IT LEAKED OUT AGAIN IT EVEN THOUGH THEY CHECK FOR THE LEAKS AND THEY WANT TO $3000 TO FIX IT THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED

THE A/C COMPRESSOR FAILED, SHOOTING OUT ICE PARTICLES INTO MY FACE. HONDA ACKNOWLEDGES THE CONDENSER WAS FAULTY FROM THE FACTORY AND REPLACED THAT COMPONENT, BUT REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE FAULTY CONDENSER PROBABLY SHORTENED/CAUSE ISSUES WITH THE LIFE OF THE COMPRESSOR CAUSING IT TO FAIL. IS COST PROHIBITIVE TO REPAIR AND LACK OF AIR CONDITIONING CAUSES HEALTH AND VISIBILITY ISSUES WITH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD IN THE WINTER.

PURCHASED CAR IN JULY 2016, SINGLE OWNER, TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP, CAPITAL HONDA IN OLYMPIA, WA ON 4/10/2020 DUE TO NO COOL AIR FORM AC SYSTEM, INFORMED THAT THE COMPRESSOR HAS OIL AND REFRIGERANT LEAKING FROM COMPRESSOR, THE COMPRESSOR IS REQUIRED TO BE REPLACED TO FIX. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY SERVICE OR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON THE AC SYSTEM PRIOR TO VISIT ON 4/10/2020. I ELECTED TO NOT HAVE THE ESTIMATED $1800 REPAIR MADE AT THIS TIME. I WILL SCAN AND SEND IN THE REPAIR ESTIMATE IF REQUIRED.

A/C NOT WORKING. JUST HIT 3 YEARS AND 50,000 MILES AND NOW NO MORE COLD A/C. I TOOK CAR IN TO LOCAL DEALER AND THEY JUST TRIED TO SAY MY SYSTEM NEEDED RECHARGING AND HAD NO LEAKS. I TOLD THEM I WANTED MY CAR BACK BECAUSE I KNOW THEY, KNEW IF THIS ISSUE AND WAS JUST AVOIDING TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM, AT MY EXPENSE. A WHOLE $390 QUOTE TO RECHARGE. TOOK MY CAR TO LOCALE REPARIE SHOP AND GUY LOOKED AT MY FOR 5 MINUTES AND TOLD MY COMPRESSOR WAS BAD, AND HE'S HAD 5 OTHER PEOPLE COME IN WITH SAME ISSUE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.
