NHTSA Complaint #10525862 — 2009 HONDA FIT

I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2009 HONDA FIT IN FEBRUARY 2009. THE FOLLOWING YEAR BY JULY 2010 THE AC UNIT DID NOT WORK AT ALL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I HAD BOUGHT MY CAR, WHO TOLD ME THAT A ROCK FROM THE ROAD HAD HIT THE AC UNIT, THE REFRIGERANT HAD ESCAPED AND I HAD TO PAY USD$ 890.00 TO REPAIR IT, BECAUSE THAT REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. THEN I REALIZED THE FRONT BUMPER UNDER THE TAG HAD BIG SPACES THAT MAY ALLOW A ROCK TO GO THROUGH AND HIT THE AC CONDENSER. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND HONDA SHOULD COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. *TR
