  1. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    They are going to say your compressor is leaking while the extended warranty covers only the condenser. That is the standard playbook of Honda on this issue. Truth is, Honda has a defective unit that affects the whole a/c unit and something that originated in the condenser would eventually...
  2. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    I filed a scathing letter on the Honda customer service as well as left an equally brutal feedback to American Honda for my service feedback. Surprise, surprise.... Honda has finally reached out to me asking for my information. I am assuming they are going to pay to fix my ac. I am going to...
  3. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    The reason 2019s and 2020s haven’t come under scrutiny for this problem as much as the 2016-18s is because most of these vehicles are still under warranty. If anything happens, it will be covered under warranty at no cost and people are not reporting it plus it is too early in the life of the...

    He meant the 3y/36k Limited warranty that comes default when you buy it.
  5. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    That explains it. But that doesn’t explain how Honda can put in a ac system that fails in 2 years. Mine lasted 4 years and change but only 28k miles. You should demand Honda fix it without any cost to you.
  6. why did you buy a civic?

    I bought this in early 2016 and basically this was the only car in the segment that got a major redesign. i came over from owning 20 years of Toyota/Lexus and I am seriously regretting my decision after 4 years. Honda doesn’t stand behind its cars and sells substandard crap with full knowledge...
  7. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    I am the one who had the defective battery. it was pathetic that the battery died in 8 months and I’d have never guessed it was the battery because the whole electrical system just gasped and died. Ive never had a battery die on me that fast and I owned 2 Toyotas and 2 Lexuses before and...
  8. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    Btw, your 2018 should be still under warranty, no? If yes, you are getting even more screwed.
  9. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    Honda is still ripping you off. The part is clearly defective and a matter of time before they are forced to fix it legally. You should demand free full replacement. i have written to American Honda and I expect a full free replacement with $0 cost to me. Just so you know, the part itself...
  10. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    I have sent a scathing letter to American Honda as well the dealership in the service feedback and it was directed at Honda. I am not paying a penny for this bullshit defective part Honda is fully aware of but keep dancing around it. it is just a matter of time before Honda recalls the 2016-18...
  11. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    Most or all of 2016-18s came out of the Honda plant in Ontario, Canada.
  12. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    2019s should be still under bumper to bumperwarranty. You should start worrying when your warranty is about to expire.
  13. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    2019s should be still under warranty period.
  14. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    2016-18 Civics use the same defective part. I think in 2019, they started using a different one. Doesn’t mean they are trouble free. It just means it is not the same part and it is a bit early for the 2019s to start failing and if they do, people are not really reporting it because they are...
  15. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    Isolating it to the condenser is bs. It affects the whole ac system. And Honda is wiggling out of most of the so called warranty by pinning the leak somewhere else on the ac unit. Mine was today blamed on the compressor to milk me $2000. Truth is they have a defective ac unit. They better step...
  16. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    I am not fixing this out of my pocket hoping Honda will reimburse me. Ive sent them a sternly worded letter to step up and admit and fix the defective unit or face legal action. They better pony up and fix me with the dealer to take care of this or there is going to be hell to pay. this is a...
  17. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    That’s what the dealer wanted from me today and I am not paying a penny. There is already a Class Action initiated on this issue. Google for Andre Wong v. American Honda Motors
  18. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    All. This is a widespread problem with 2016-18 civics and not just limited to the condenser. The whole ac unit is a dud. Recall coming sooner or later. Inevitable. Every mechanic knows about this and blame the whole ac unit not just the condenser.
  19. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    They told me today my compressor is leaking and the condenser is fine and will cost me $2000. Honda is pulling a huge con job on this issue without admitting they have a shitty defective ac unit. They are trying to move away from the condenser to point the problem to and wiggle out of. Send...
  20. My A/C took a poop...*Dealership update*

    My 2016 Civic Touring (2016) with 28000 miles had the ac go kaput last week blowing hot air out of all vents except one that is blowing somewhat cold air. Took it to the dealer and they said it’s not my condenser that is leaking but my compressor is and Honda won’t cover it according to the...
