In 2006, the air conditioning compressor failed in our 2002 honda crv. the car had about 63,000 miles at the time. our honda dealer said the warranty had expired and the part was not covered by a recall. we purchased a new honda replacement compressor and had it installed at a local shop because honda's labor price was outrageous...over $3000! this repair cost us about $2500. in 2007, the compressor failed again at 78,000 miles. we checked with the honda dealer again, and were told that the part was not covered by a recall. they said there was metal pieces in the lines and the entire air conditioning system had to be replaced. it would cost $4000 to have the system replaced. again, i purchased honda replacement parts and had a local shop install the new air conditioning system. this time i paid $3200, which included a discount on the labor rate because they had replaced the compressor before. we were without our crv for over two weeks during the hottest time of the year (temps above 100 f). this was a terrible inconvenience, and a financial burden. many other honda crv owners have had the same problem, so this is clearly a manufacturing defect. i suspect there is, or will be, a class action suit against honda. i haven't found a way to join the suit, but i am looking. something should be done about this problem.
