1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 07/05/2019

The ac vents started to make clicking noises as something was inside of the vent. Then, the ac unit would blow hot air on one side of the cabin and moderately cold on the other. Two days later the vents would blow hot air on the hottest setting. After getting the unit and car checked out, the ac compressor was cracked. The car is with the original owner and hasn't been through any accidents so for it to crack is very strange. Looking up forms, my vehicle is not the only one that this has happened to. Multiple vehicles across multiple states have had this issue happen around 37-42,000 miles. After brining this up to Honda corporate, they stated the condenser will have a recall, but the compressor is okay which doesn't make sense because many people are using outside services to fix their vehicles and Honda will not recall the part. They produced a bad batch of parts that were placed on their cars and now want the owners to pay for it instead of resolving the issue.

3 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 03/28/2018

As I was pulling out of my driveway at night (the car had been sitting there all day), I heard a crackling sound and noise coming out of the rooftop. I stopped right away, got out of the car to see a big hole in the center of the moonroof glass panel. The glass fell on the on the inside roof slider (which luckily was closed). The moonroof glass panel was intact and not damaged from the prior drive. It just disintegrated on its own as I was pulling out of the driveway, and clearly not the result of a road hazard/impact as Honda/dealership asserted (even though I told them the circumstances under which this happened).
