Sorry, didn't mean it that way. Should have said "Adonis"!
 
Actually, it's Apollo.

Not exactly. The average elevation of Florida is 98.43 feet - above sea level.

 
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.

So, what's your point? The complaints here are about a car part prematurely breaking down. If your heater broke down in the winter and your car only has below-average miles, won't you raise the issue with Honda?
 
If it is out of warranty, I would call Honda corporate and see what they can do. If nothing, I would suck it up and replace it my self.
 
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.

Has Honda Fixed CR-V AC Compressor Problem on New CR-V? by misar

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.

I don't think the OP mentioned anything about a lawyer in this case. The forum was started for a reason so people are using it to vent.

I believe that's what the owners are doing whether they've been helped partially, 100%, or not at all. You're not the only man (or woman) here...

Not according to the GPS
 
According to WolframAlpha: http://www17.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=florida+average+elevation

But, we don't judge in this country, everyone is entitled to do whatever makes them happy.
 
You hit the nail on the head! I think you always need to keep your statement in mind, because your bias shows your narrow-mindedness.

Again your i***cy shows through again. If you just made a search on "nlv1", it will show you that we've exchanged banters before, and on one message (CR-V vs. Escape forum) I did say we live in Houston. It was in 2005, and you were chastising everyone who bought a CR-V with 2WD. And raising a 5-yr old in Katy (a Houston suburb), is just fine.
 
So again, before you put your foot in your mouth, think before you speak, or write. Will look forward to running into you later...

Guys and Gals,
 
  All this talk about the elevation of Florida, while very entertaining, is taking away from the record of Honda's poorly designed and engineered AC system. This is the first place most people on the 'net come when they search this topic, so let's try to keep it informative and on topic. Off topic posts will just limit the impact of the myriad of stories catalogued here.
 
BTW, BlueEyedWhatever's suggestion to move out of Florida if AC is a requirement rather than admit that the AC should simply work was farcical, and worthy of a good laugh.

Took CR-V to local dealer last Saturday, had it checked, and was told mine was the 'catastrophic' failure that contaminates the entire system with debris. Service Writer volunteered to call American Honda for me, as he had seen this failure before. He did warn me, however, that AH had begun to tighten the purse strings with respect to customer assistance because of the economic downturn. Received follow-up call Monday afternoon. AH denied my request. Said I'd get no support, but they would only charge me "warranty cost" of $2600. I called AH later that day, and all I could get was a "we honor our field rep's decisions." Anyone know of another level of appeal? Have you been successful, or did you get the same response? I also called 3 other Service Managers yesterday (1 in NC; 2 in Ga) and all said Honda had a problem with A/C's. All also essentially said it was discouraging and embarassing to be on the receiving end of AH's recent rejections. They, too, thought Honda was better than this. Any ideas, short of driving the '95 Olds '88 my father-in-law left me, whose A/C works just fine???
