Description of the problem	My 2005 cr-v had the "black death" issue last may of 08. That seemed odd enough to me that a compressor would go that soon in such a "reliable" car. My whole family owns hondas. The dealer told me that it would cost 3200 to fix it. That my compressor "exploded" (lol, i am not an idiot, unfortunately for him). I immediately took it to my personal mechanic, who showed me the locked springs inside the compressor, and said it was indeed "odd" to see an ac failure that soon. After he fixed it up for 1300. I got a call from the honda serviceman offering to maybe "work something out". Well, with a small child. I could not afford to bargain for ac in may in south florida, so he was a tad too late. I did not know, until my compressor went out again today, that there was this issue and was known. I have contacted honda america, who were no help at all, and the dealer wanted to charge me 105. 00 to diagnose it, and i would not be charged if i fixed it there. Hmmm. Honda america says they will only take estimates from honda dealers and not other state licensed mechanic. Sounds very fishy to me!! I am now out ac (driving 40 miles to work at the tail end of the flu), and who knows how much money next. They are not willing to pay for it all they said already, and they hadn't even gotten a quote. I feel like i need to do something! I am so angered that they would just brush it under the rug like that. There are so many people out here that have the same trouble. I have signed the lawsuit petition, but not sure what to do next. I know it's october, but it's hot here in fl!!! Any ideas?? At this point, i am definitely not buying another honda!!!! Never thought i'd say that, but i can't afford to replace this thing every year, and neither should i!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
