| Description of the problem | 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 they can't afford to fix it and someone is going to get hurt from it crashing. |
