| Description of the problem | I came out of work and started my car. It smelled horrible, like an electrical fire. I brought it to my honda dealership and they said it is the clutch mechanism. The a/c compressor failed and it is going to cost $1600 to fix. This was legitimately out of nowhere with no issue up until this point in time and it took me completely by surprise. Upon looking online, there are several reports of similar situations. A recall really should be done. This is an extremely expensive repair for owners to be burdened with. |
