They should! Yes. I have nothing against that.
AC units that you buy at home are overly built (hence why they weight a lot). Car AC system should be of no exception.
Well, that is it... AC broken.
Your compressor or condenser has leaked. Radiator should be covered under Honda extended warranty that Honda provided. See with your dealership. For the compressor, you are on your own. If it's not broken today, it will probably be soon. I would consider to replace...
Before you do that, and have your insurance premium go up.
Try a different dealership. Don't mention that you went to another one before. I am not sure if it will work, but maybe say that you are new here, at the recommendation of a friend family member or something, and compliment them with...
Honda says, on the letter, that isn't all models. I guess they noticed and changed the radiator at some point in time.
Personally, I think the real issue is the design flaw (in my opinion), with the vent at the front bumper with very large opening.
While I fixed mine, I went to the hardware...
Looking at the manual on the Civic 2016 in Canada. It does not call it "Second".
It simply says to use this mode when you want more acceleration and is ideal for going up or down hills.
I have already driven in "S" to test, and there is "gear shifting" (CVT so no gears), and not stuck in...
You can get yourself some break fluid testers from amazon.
They are inexpensive, you just stick it and it will tell you if it is good or not, and how bad it is.
The reality of things, is that many people don't ever change the break fluid (assuming they keep the car for 5-7 years), but in the...
What I have done, is bought aluminium black colored (so you don't see it) insect screen for windows, which you can easily find at your local hardware store, and some black metal tie wraps/twigs from the dollar store.
Cut a rectangular peace, slide it under the opening of the car large vent holes...
Funny thing is that my 2 rear shocks leaked. The car is out of the 3 year warranty, not sure if the 5 year power train warranty covers that. Dealership said no. Don't know if I can fight Honda for this or not.
I wonder what is the associated cost in parts to the replacement of the shock. I was...
I had mine replaced out of warranty fully paid by Honda, as it was repaired under warranty under 1 year prior.
The condenser was the issue both times. The issue is definitely a mixture of the car being low, and the front bumper not having a mesh type of design to reduce rock hitting the...
Try a different dealership. Also contact Honda and report the issue. They'll act as they never heard of the issue (of course), but whatever, open a case, and have them call the new dealership you are dealing with. This will show to the dealership that you are on top of things.
In the end:
->...
In Canada, recalls are voluntary if they are not a safety concern. So I doubt that Honda will do any recalls on that.
I would suggest to try and find a way to put some sort of mesh behind the bumper (so that you don't see it), to reduce the chances of rocks going in and breaking the condenser...
I don't know how bad your situation is, but:
Condenser should not be hit by a rock. That would be a design flaw. If you are ready to fight for this, then bring it in for replacement while you have some warranty.
It is not normal that a A/C unit fails under 10 years in a car. You also have La Loi...
Glass, no.... it's made of paper.
I am trying to figure out a way (after it is fixed) to see if I can add some sort of mesh to protect the condenser, to reduce the chances of damage. The difficult part is that it needs to get fresh air, so I can't just block the intake... but is the mesh holes...
Do you have the issue if you disable econ mode?
You don't have anything to worry about.. the car has a 3 year warranty and your lease is 3 years in length. If there is any issue it will be covered (beside a rock/stone damaged the condenser)
Mine broke again. This will be the second time it broke. This time it is not under warranty anymore. The repair is not even 1 year old. And I fixed it at the end of summer/warranty. So, I just got to use my AC again. Terrible design. I have the Honda Civic 2016
I had it fixed under warranty at the end of my warranty and summer last year... winter came and went, and yesterday, the first warm day, I noticed that my AC is not working anymore.
Looks like there is a leak again on the condenser. The car is low millage for a 3 years and a half (about) car...
I have mine that squeak when pressing and releasing depending on the weather. Seems to be the piston it breaks. If I use my other foot to press, I guess due to the pressure location on the pedal, it doesn't squeak.I brought it to the dealership, but "they can't hear it". Anyway, it doesn't bug...
I have a Honda Civix 2016 EX, Canadian. I have Honda hack. I don't know what ADB is, nor have Nav (I use Waze which I installed on it). What is your question?
