“On thursday our AC started blowing hot air. I contacted a Honda service rep and they made an appointment for the upcoming monday.

They filled our car with free-on and added a dye and asked up to come back in 2 weeks, they said out A/C should begin cooling...it did for 3 hours. I made an appointment for thursday of the same week. The reps said I need my condenser replaced, that road debris damaged the condenser. …”
