Consumer Description

AC COMPRESSOR BLEW UP CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE ENTIRE AC SYSTEM. COMPRESSOR SENT METAL PIECES THROUGH ENTIRE SYSTEM AFTER IT BLEW UP. QUOTED OVER $3000 FROM HONDA FOR REPAIR. CALLED AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY REFUSED TO HELP STATING IT IS BC THE CAR HAS OVER 36,000 MILES. HOWEVER, HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET WERE HELPED BY HONDA WITH THE SAME MILEAGE AS MY CRV. IT MAKES NO SENSE. I BELIEVE THAT IF ANYTHING IS "BLOWING" UP UNDER THE HOOD OF MY CAR (AS HONDA DESCRIBED IT) IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SOMETHING THEY KNOW IS A PROBLEM. THIS IS NEGLIGENCE! LOOK UP WWW.HONDA-LAWSUIT.COM FOR INFORMATION ON A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ABOUT THIS ISSUE. *TR
