I did not receive a recall for "air bags: Frontal" issued in June 2004. Also, the ac compressor went out on my 2004 Honda CR-V. I was told by the dealership I bought the car from that they had been having a lot of trouble reported on the ac compressors. They charged me $395 plus tax to replace mine. I feel it should have been replaced free since the car was only 3 years old.

CR-V 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 71,000 miles
I was driving my 2004 Honda CR-V with the air conditioner on, and I heard a pop and then a rattle. Then, my air conditioner stopped blowing cold air. As I tested the air conditioner, I could tell that the air conditioner was not kicking in. I scheduled an appointment with Honda service, and they told me that the compressor shaft was broken, and that the air compressor, clutch, and coil needed to be replaced. This repair was very costly ($1300) and it was not covered under warranty. I was very disappointed that my air conditioner would fail after only 2 years of use. Honda service told me that it looked like normal wear and tear. My complaint lies in the possibility that this part was defective. If not, then this incident could happen again in another 2 years.
