Consumer Description

MY 2001 CHEVY VENTURE'S AIR CONDITIONING CONDENSER OBTAINED A CRACK, CAUSING THE AC FLUID TO LEAK OUT AND NOT FUNCTION. VEHICLE IS AT 39000 MILES AND BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY. SPEAKING WITH PARTS DEPT AT A LOCAL DEALER, APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM CAUSED BY NORMAL FLEXING OF THE VEHICLE'S FRAMEWORK, AND A COSTLY ONE TO REPAIR (ABT $850.00 PARTS AND LABOR). THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT NEED TO PAY FOR DESIGN DEFECTS LIKE THIS. AC CONDENSERS ARE NOT A COMPONENT THAT ROUTINELY CRACK, ESPECIALLY IN VEHICLES THIS NEW.
