My 2004 honda cr-v's air conditioning stopped working on the afternoon of 9/24/10. The air blowing out seemed to be warm. I made an appointment at a local service station to inspect the a/c for the following morning, 9/25/10. The mechanic removed the lower panel a/c compressor and showed me a hole that was caused by the a/c compressor "exploding" outward. There were a few metal shard pieces left in the plastic panel…

Airconditioner quit working. Thought was just low freon-was shrapnal in my vehicle from the unit disintegrated. Was told lucky i didn't drive any further or the shrapnel would have gotten into the engine, seized it up, possibly crashing in the process. This is something that honda knows is happening. It cost me about $1600.00 to repair, someone is going to continue to drive after losing the airconditioning because…

(honda is paying a portion - they know they have a problem with this model of honda) honda needs to do a recall on this car to fix this problem. It is happening to hundreds…

The a/c went kaput on my 2004 honda crv. Hendrick honda of charleston told me the entire system was contaminated and needed to be replaced in the ballpark of $3000. My car has 40,000 miles on it and i have learned of a litany of the same problem with other 2001-2004 honda crvs. I've also learned that the crv air conditioning system has been redesigned for models after '04. I contacted american honda and received a…

In short, the air conditioning compressor on my 2004 honda cr-v blew apart at 70 mph and 58,000 miles sending metal pieces flying and bounce back from the pavement hitting all along the entire length of the underside of my cr-v. To add to my frustration, the cr-v was given a 60,000 mile service in the amount of $955.76 at 56,050 miles to guard against something like this happening. At the 60, 000 mile service along…
