2002 Honda CR-V Owner Comments

problem #2

Dec 292006

(reported on)

CR-V 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles

Twice, at 40,000 and 70,000, while I was idling in traffic with air conditioning on, the car stalled. It immediately restarted both times, but immediately, only hot air came out. I drive directly to Honda dealer both times, with same conclusion, fluid had flooded entire air conditioning system and ruined it. A totally new system had to be put in, at a cost of $3,500-$4,000. I was covered by extended warranty both times. A Honda technician told me confidentially that it was a constant problem with CR-V's, that Honda was being pressured to issue a recall but decided against it. My warranty is over and I live in fear of it happening again.
