Description of the problem | In front of the 2010 accord there are two big holes cut out for a sporty look. Everyday driving to and from work on the highway something flew up from off the road and went into one of the open areas and sliced my air condenser and all of my freon leaked out and it wouldn't be patched entire piece had to be replaced so my complaint is why would an area like that be left wide open to a main part of the a/c and not a piece of mesh there to protect that. It was not covered on my 100,000 mile warranty so therefore the repair had to come out of my pocket on a 6 month old car. I should not be afraid to drive my car but honestly i am due to the fact that i just had this fixed and it very well could happen again no warning all because this are is exposed and it is not covered under my warranty!!!! |
