If it wasn't for the concern about visibility to defrost/defog the windshield in certain weather conditions, would not be shelling out another $1600 plus tax on this reliability highly overrated vehicle. Currently has only 166,600 miles on it. This time failure is being attributed to the condenser fan needing replacement also. At least…

    I have a 2002 honda cr-v with 84,000 miles on it. This vehicle has been well maintained & has had all manufacturer recommended services completed and i have the records to prove it. The a/c compressor exploded last week circulating metal filings into the vehicle's system. This is a safety hazard because the engine could seize as a result of the presence of metal filings therefore not having any power brakes, power…

    On july 15th, the engine of our cr-v all of a sudden had an extra load on it. We shut off the ac and the extra load went away. The next day, about 140 miles into a trip the ac stopped working. We took the vehicle to two separate mechanics. The non-honda mechanic said that there wes a service bulletin on the ac stating that the complete ac system had to be replaced. The honda mechanic stated only the compressor and…

    We have a 2002 honda cr v with 102,000 miles on it. The air conditioner compressor exploded, contaminating the air conditioner system. I have learned that this is a regularly recurring problem with honda, but they refuse to correct the problem and refuse to help the consumer. *tr

    I'm the owner of a 2002 honda cr-v and have had problems with the a/c blowing hot air and now it's completely stopped. I'm reading hundreds of posts from other cr-v owners with the same problem and thousands of dollars in repairs. This is ridiculous. Honda needs to take responsibility. Not only is this consumer fraud, it is a safety issue. *tr

    I own a 2002 honda cr-v ex and its has 75,780 miles on it and today the air conditioner pump has failed. The pump has fragmented parts into the whole a/c system and will be a rather high repair rate from my local shop. *tr
