Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY 2008 HONDA ACCORD IN JANUARY OF 2008. AUGUST 2008, MY AIR STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED ME THAT A ROCK OR A PEBBLE HIT THE CONDENSER AND THAT IT IS CAUSING THE FREON TO LEAK OUT. I TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER MECHANIC THEY ADVISED ME THAT HONDA IS JERKING MY CHAIN BECAUSE THAT IS NOT THE CASE. I TOLD THE PEOPLE AT HONDA, THAT THERE IS NOTHING PROTECTING THE CONDENSER FROM THE DEBRIS, IT IS POORLY DESIGNED ON THAT ASPECT. I TOLD THEM THAT I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED, THEY WOULD NOT TRY TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE WITH ME AT ALL. THEY ARE EXPECTING ME TO COVER THE COST FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR
