Description of the problem | Purchased 2017 honda civic new from dealership with standard new car warranty. At 41,000 miles air conditioning stopped working. Brough vehicle to dealership and was told new compressor was needed and repair would cost $986 + tax. Bought vehicle because of reputation for reliability. Something like this has never happened before and dealership even admitted that there has been a severe problem with air conditioning compressors for this particular year and make vehicle. After searching internet for information i came to realize that this is true and wondered how many other consumers were faced with the same type repair costing over $1,000? Filing this complaint so that word gets out and someone can finally hold honda accountable for selling a product with a known defective component |
