Honda's compressors seem to fail a bit too often, but Honda has gone to bat for a lot of people who have posted on this discussion. btw, my wife has mild asthma out here in the high desert of Boise. Apparently a climate change helps, but only for about 5 years, after which you acclimate. So it may be most helpful to move every 5 years to keep your system on its toes. |

Replying to: nlv1 (Jun 30, 2009 10:18 pm) I actually live in Amherst, 3rd populous center in NY state, I believe. At one point Amherst was the safest large town in the whole country for many years, but dropped to No.3 after some religious zealot shot an abortion doctor. As far as I know, population of Amherst has been growing. So, I am not worried about me being the only person in town. With Geico having moved its Long Island operations to Amherst, as well as Citibank, and now Yahoo (in Lockport) I am pretty sure that in-sourcing is what is going to keep the population growing. By the way, even though you are too affraid to fill out your profile, and think you can hide behind the annonymity of the internet, I can see that you are writing from the city on the Buffalo Bayou. So... how's the hurricane outlook for this year? How does it feel rasiing a 4 year old in the 46th crime ridden city in the country? Internet is not as annonymous as you may think. We do a lot of business with the oil companies in Houston, so, we may run into each other, one day

Actually, I really wanted the HR-V, but Honda never brought it here. A Civic with AWD would have been fine with me. I don't need a large vehicle to compensate for anything. Before moving to Buffalo I drove a number Civics and was very comfortable. CR-V is the smallest of the vehicles in Honda line up that offers AWD. Had SHAWD beed avaialable on the TSX, I would have gladly bought that. I have no inferiority complex, nor have the need to compensate for anything. I just see things as they are, without being politically correct. Automatic were invented to attract the female buyers, and any male, short of a cripple, driving an automatic is essentially equal to wearing a dress. But, we don't judge in this country, everyone is entitled to do whatever makes them happy. I also ride, and with the advent of automatic motorcycles, no man with a automatic bike will be allowed no where near a motorcycle rally, or any motorcycle oriented gathering. Only women are allowed in clubs with automatic bikes. But, most choose not to.

Not according to the GPS in the car, and it is pretty accurate when it comes to elevations. Driving the length of I-95 only bridges and some patches were above the sea level, everything else was either at or below sea level.

It is all about being a man, and men when faced with challenges don't run crying to their mommy (lawyer in this case), but do what men do. Fix it and get on with their lives.

I am thinking seriously about buying a 2010 CR-V when it hits the dealer, but since I like to keep a car a long time I am conerned about the AC compressor problem. Has Honda stopped using the faulty compressor on 2009 and /or 2010 CR-Vs? If not I think I will be looking at other makes.
