#1325 of 1373 Re: Compressors replaced / then how is it running?? sluggish? [jo27] by kittygirl Sep 04, 2009 (5:12 pm)
Replying to: jo27 (Aug 21, 2009 2:41 pm) I'm having the EXACT same problem. I had my air conditioner compressor replaced and it was fine for the last 1 1/2 years....until the last month or so. AC still cold, but I have this sluggishness. I also have a rough idle that just developed today. The car actually stalled when I went to make a turn, so now I'm taking it in Tuesday. Did they figure out what it is? I thought maybe the idle needed adjusting or it was the transmission, but now you have me thinking it is related to the ac.

Replying to: kittygirl (Sep 04, 2009 5:12 pm) the dealer had the car for about a day... I took it for a ride with the mechanic and got on 95 north - went up hill and had the pedal to the floor - definately how my CRV handled... she's a 5 speed and has no problem going up hills but the a/c on, I had no power... felt like the vehicle was tugging... They drove it without me that afternoon and many times the following day but weren't getting the same feel that I was with the sluggishness. They ended up flushing the coolant and recharging the system. They seemed to think there was too much pressure from when the new compressor was installed and the coolant flushed and recharged. This seemed to resolve my issues. Since it's been 1 1/2 years for you, I'm not sure if this is the same thing. Good luck! I just know that at 90k on this vehicle, it BETTER last another 5 years with THIS new compressor... Or I will be fighing Honda on this sooner than later.

#1327 of 1373 2003 Honda CRV A/C system - another bad one by dann7 Sep 09, 2009 (10:51 am)
My 2003 Honda was purchased in June of the same year. In the summer of 2005 at 36,000 miles, the a/c system blew up sending metal shards all throughout the hoses in the vehicle and rendering them replaceable. Fortunately, I had purchased the extended warranty and only had to pay a $50.00 deductible, but Honda did try to get me to pay for the damaged hoses, I didn't. In the hot hot summer in 2007 76,000 miles, the air conditioning system blew up again same as before. Again, I only had to pay the $50.00 deductible as my extended warranty kicked in. In the summer of 2008, the motor blower had to be replaced so I had no a/c again. That was also replaced under extended warranty. Well Lo and behold, what happens in September 2009 115,000 miles, the a/c system blows up again. When I contacted Honda corporate, I was told "they are very strict about mileage". As far as I am concerned mileage has nothing do do with this, obviously this is a defective system or part that is doing damage to the entire a/c system. I too find the vehicle to be sluggish when the a/c is on. The main reason I had purchased this model was because of all the positive feedback I received from other Honda owners. Sorry now that I listened. Guess I will be going back to Toyota. Have a 91 corolla that runs like a top. I am sure that Honda will try and beat me down on this as my extended warranty has expired. I was given an estimate of $3265.00. I know they are kidding. I wanted my next vehicle to be the Honda Pilot, but that never will happen now. Looking forward to anymore feed back and thank you to every body for all of the info. dann7
#1328 of 1373 Honda CR-V AC Blue Death. by hitanveer Sep 09, 2009 (11:43 am)
I have 2004 Honda CRV. AC burnt down. Paid dealer $65 for diagnosis. Dealear stated that AC got debris in it and need whole replacement. Cost $3200. I called Honda Moter Company. They refuse tocover it. Vehicle has 67k miles on it. It seems like common problem. Is there any site that helps on it?

#1329 of 1373 Re: VIN numbers [w1john] by dann7 Sep 09, 2009 (1:17 pm)
Replying to: w1john (Aug 16, 2009 6:23 pm) The VIN on my 2003 CR-V begins with SHSR. This is a terrible injustice that Honda can make lemons and never have to recall or compensate the customer. I assuredly will NEVER buy a Honda again and will try to convince anyone I know who wants a Honda to stick with Toyota.   Thanks for the info on VIN's

Replying to: hitanveer (Sep 09, 2009 11:43 am) There is a pending class action lawsuit that you can participate in if you were affected by the A/C compressor defect. http://www.honda-lawsuit.com/ Replies to this message: jo27 (Sep 09, 2009 5:29 pm) moneypit6 (Sep 10, 2009 7:08 pm) jdpoling (Sep 17, 2009 9:48 am) mailelei (Sep 17, 2009 9:58 am)

Replying to: w1john (Sep 09, 2009 4:31 pm) Thanks for the info. on the class action suit. I will make sure I have all my doci and will do this ASAP. It can't hurt if ALL of us respond. My CRV is a 2004 and has 90k on it... just paid off and I hope to NOT have to go thru a 2nd compressor during the next 90k that I own this vehicle. Thanks again.

#1332 of 1373 2004 Honda CRV Air Conditioner by moneypit6 Sep 10, 2009 (7:06 pm)
74,500 miles. About 2 weeks ago paid over $500 to have the front O2 sensor replaced at the dealer. Today A/C bit the dust. Don't know exactly what the problem is but will find out tomorrow and the cost. I cannot believe all the problems with the A/C in these vehicles. Had I known, would have never purchased one. Am most disappointed. Will post later the details but from the sound it made I am concerned. It is hot in Texas in the summer.

Replying to: jo27 (Sep 09, 2009 5:29 pm) Can you give me any info on the class action suit. A/C blew up today in my 2004 Honda CRV. Have only 74,500 miles on it. Garage kept, oil changes and maintenance as required. Never saw this coming.
#1334 of 1373 Re: Compressors replaced / then how is it running?? sluggish? [jo27] by moneypit6 Sep 10, 2009 (7:16 pm)
Replying to: jo27 (Aug 21, 2009 2:41 pm) Today, 2004 Honda CRV A/C went out. Don't know the cost to repair yet. 74,500 miles, kept in the garage, oil changes and maintenance done regularly. Had o2 sensor replaced about 2 weeks ago at a cost of over $500.00. Once I get it back fixed there will be a 'FOR SALE" sign on it immediatley. Will do a little more homework next time I purchase a new car and I can tell you it WILL NOT be a Honda.
