NHTSA Complaint #10213029 — 2006 HONDA CIVIC

I OWN A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED THE A/C WAS NOT THROWING COOL AIR. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER IN BRANDON FL. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE CONDENSER TO THE A/C WAS DAMAGED DUE TO A ROAD HAZARD, SOMETHING STRIKING IT THROUGH THE GRILL. MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE REPAIR BILL THAT I PAID WAS OVER $400.00. MY CONCERN WAS ADDRESSED TO A DISTRICT MANAGER, HE STATED THAT DUE TO A ROAD HAZARD HONDA WOULD NOT PAY. I BELIEVE THAT A POOR DESIGN FEATURE BY THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD NOT COST ME. *TR
