A/C compressor short cycles very often. Air coming out of vent becomes very warm. Problem started about 3-4 years ago.

Update from Sep 3, 2021: Update: taking a large stick and whacking the compressor clutch seemed to temporarily fix the issue... It's not perfect but works. "Whacking" or hitting the clutch very slightly shortens the air gap between the clutch and the pulley (which gets too large over time) and allows for easier engagement. If this doesn't work, check the relay for the A/C compressor (located on the exterior fuse box).

I am the original owner of my Honda civic since 2007 and it seems that after the fourth year there have been many problems. I have my oil changed every 3,000/miles and I go to the Honda dealer and have everything checked when my oil is changed. But after the fourth year there have been expensive problems ranging from undercarriage to air conditioning to interior problems like my visors breaking by simply putting them down to protect from the sun. I replaced both. The air conditioning clutch broke twice, the two rear stabilizer arms broke, now both front axles broke.

I drive this vehicle like a kitten I go over bumps at 0-1 mph. If I drove rough I would understand the undercarriage problems but this is not the case. The cables to my gas tank snapped I had to open it with a screwdriver. That bill is going to be $300.00 just to replace the cables. There is extended sun damage on my vehicle and yes there was a recall...but for only a small part of the vehicle but the dealer still didn't get back to me on that. I spoke with a a guy from the body shop and he said that they didn't prime the car properly when they painted it. I don't know what happened to Honda!! I use to think that Honda made a good vehicle but after this I'm going to stay away from Honda. So if anyone is reading this from Honda I'm going to post these problems on the internet until you make things right.
