Air conditioner compressor failure. A safety concern in that this locks up the compressor pulley and possibly the entire engine belt. Replaced by Honda.

problem #1

Sep 162003

CR-V

  • Automatic transmission
  • 39,800 miles
Air conditioner compressor had completely failed. A few days after the compressor failed, the serpentine belt snapped. The vehicle was in motion when the A/C went out with no warning. The vehicle made a tapping noise and smelled like burning rubber along with smoke coming out from the hood when the serpentine belt was found snapped.
