2020 honda civic hatch sport touring 6mt
Country flag
Hi all! I am looking to purchase a 2020 civic hatch sport touring with (apparently rare) 6mt. We love the what the car comes with and for the price it seems like quite the package.
One question is about the troubles that the 2018/19 civics had with the ac condenser. Is that something to look out for in a 2020 or has that been fixed? Haven't been able to find any info on that.
We re moving up from a 2004 civic! So when the dealer asked if we wanted an extended warranty I initially thought no. Since our 2004 has been very reliable minus minor very things. So would you pay 4k for the extended warranty?
Any and all input is greatly appreciated!

You can get the Honda Care warranty for like $700 - I forget where but there's a Honda dealer that sells them super cheap, and you can buy it any time before the 3 year warranty is up.

Run away from any dealer asking $4k for it, lol.

You'll want it - I had to fix my condenser out of pocket last year, and it's acting up again just 9 months later. Not sure how long the warranty is on service parts.

Thanks, I thought 4k was a bit much.

I have been looking for the Hatch Touring 6MT, that car is actually really hard to find so I gave up on finding one and decided to go with the SI sedan and just upgrade the seats with KATZKIN which I think will end up being cheaper in the end anyways. 4K for Hondacare is ridiculous though don't pay that much.

I wouldn't pay 4k for a warranty. The AC in my car hasn't had an "issue", but it takes a while to cool down and isn't as cold as I think it should be. Whether that's a recall problem is just Honda's weak ass AC, idk yet.

4k is a bit much. The 2020s should have the a/c issues fixed. I got my 2018 hatch sport with an additional 3 years and 60000km warranty for 1k. 4k is over paying I'd say.
