  1. NEW AC CONDENSER LEAKING TSB 19-091

    To follow up on my post from above, I ended up taking my car to the dealership to get fixed. In addition to replacing the condenser they also found that one of the connecting hoses was corroded. They replaced that as well and did a complete evac and recharge. All cost was covered by the TSB so...
  2. NEW AC CONDENSER LEAKING TSB 19-091

    I'm now having a with the A/C for the third time with my '16 Civic. I bought it in 2015, A/C worked great in the summer of 2016. Once it started getting hot in 2017 the A/C was blowing warm air so I took it to the dealership I was literally at the max miles for the standard warranty as I...
  3. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    I just got back from the dealership after having my compressor replaced. My ā€˜16 Civic is well past the mileage for the warranty so last week my dealership quoted me $1,500 to have the compressor replaced. Since I get this may have been related to the problem I had with my AC last year I...
  4. 2016 A/C Compressor Leak

    My thoughts exactly. If it truly was low on freon from the factory, why did the AC work for the first year?
  5. 2016 A/C Compressor Leak

    For those of you that have had a leak in the compressor, did you have to get freon added to your car at some point before the compressor issue was discovered? My AC worked great the first year I had it. The AC stopped blowing cold air at the start of the second summer and Honda said the...
  6. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Since I canā€™t find any local mechanics that have the new machine needed to evac/recharge the freon from the system when they replace the compressor in my ā€˜16 Civic I am at the mercy of my Honda dealer do it for $1,500. I have an appointment for tomorrow morning to have the work done. I dropped...
  7. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Thatā€™s what I did, and they pulled up the work order from when my car didnā€™t have enough Freon last year and they said there was no way to connect that issue to the compressor failing this year. And even if it was connected, they wouldnā€™t be responsible cause it was outside of the warranty...
  8. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Iā€™m also waiting for a case manager to call me as well. Seems like the low freon and compressors going bad are two common problems, but I havenā€™t seen any posts from anyone else saying both have happened with my car. Iā€™m not sure if the low freon in my car last year had anything to do with my...
  9. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Seems like this compressor issue is becoming a common problem. Im donā€™t know much about cars so I donā€™t know anything about how the compressors work. Is it the type of thing that might gradually fail over the course of a year? Could a car being low on freon be a sign of a failing compressor...
  10. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Thanks, Iā€™ll try that. Iā€™ve been very loyal to Honda but I feel like Iā€™ve gotten terrible service after I bought this car.
  11. 16 Civic AC Not Working

    Looks like my air compressor went bad as well. Honda wants $1,500 for parts and labor. I am very frustrated. I bought my 2016 civic in 2015. A/C worked fine in 2016. In May last year the A/C stopped blowing cold air most of the time. Took it to Honda and it was literally at the last mile...
  12. A/C acting up

    I ended up bringing my car to the dealership a few weeks ago, I was reluctant to go to the dealership cause if it was a simple problem I figured I would pay more than if I went to an independent mechanic. But I figured so it was still a somewhat newer mode car that probably hasn't had many A/C...
  13. A/C acting up

    Anyone having any issues with the air conditioning on the 2016? I have an LX and my A/C has been acting up so far this spring (I live in the south using it already). Basically it isn't making the air any colder than if the a/c was off and just the fan was running. What's weird though is the...
  14. issues connecting a phone to blue tooth

    I've had my 2016 LX for about 9 months now. I never really had much of a problem using blue tooth in the past but I've run into an issue this past week that I don't know how to fix. I had an iPhone 5S last year when I bought the car and that's what I had been using until this week with no...
  15. Do civics come with any type of free maintenance plan?

    The car wash was nice but I'm ok without getting that, I'd much rather have them vacuum out my car. Not doing car washes makes sense but I can't think of a good reason why they wouldn't vacuum out the car. I suppose it could have been a staffing issue if they were extremely busy and didn't have...
  16. Do civics come with any type of free maintenance plan?

    Just curious, for those of you that have gotten an oil change at a Honda dealership (doesn't have to be for a '16 Civic, just any Honda model) do they give you a free car wash and vacuum the inside? I got my first oil change with my '16 Civic at the dealership a couple weeks ago and was very...
  17. how long to get parts to fix recall?

    I got the notice in the mail a few weeks ago saying that my car might be affected by the piston ring recall and I need to bring it in for inspection/repairs and that the repairs might take up to 5 hours. I called my local Honda dealer to schedule and appointment and they informed me they don't...
  18. Auto Brake Hold or Nah...?

    I love this feature, I use it all the time. It is one of those features though that I tend to notice more when I don't have it when I'm driving someone else's car. In my Civic every once and a while I forgot I have it or I just don't even realize I take my foot off the brake so I take it for...
  19. Taking my car from me WTF!!

    Did the letter specifically state that you have to bring the car back? My wife bought a new car a few years ago and we put about $4,000 and financed the rest over 5 years.. The dealership sent our information to several banks to get the best APR (which I believe all good dealerships would do)...
  20. Unlocking gas door

    I haven't had this issue but I've had problems with the trunk opening when I get out of the car and lock the doors. I have the LX air I just have the stand key with the lock and trunk buttons. My hands are full sometimes and I fumble around with the keys, seems to easy to hit the pop the trunk...
