Anonymous A., ON (2018 Honda CR-V Touring 1.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"My AC did not work for over a year. It was intermittent, working about 30% of the time. I took it to 2dealersfor a total of 4 times. Each time they told me it worked fine and then proceeded to tell me how to work the AC on a car I had owned for 5 years. Last week I took it to a local shop. He found a frayed wire and it is now fixed. My main concern is the quality of care at 2 major dealerships and how they treated me, a woman."

Anonymous A., MO (2018 Honda CR-V EX 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"The climate system is not cooling the car as fast as when I first bought it. This is not a fatal flaw and eventually the car gets sufficiently cool."
Anonymous, NJ (2018 Honda CR-V EX 1.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"My dealership replaced the seals and gaskets and reload the refrigerant at no cost to me. This is the second time that I have had to have parts replaced on the ac in my Honda CR-V. The first time cost me over $800 and I never did know why the metal tubing failed. I certainly had not suffered any damage to my car and I will always believe it was a mechanical failure that was not properly installed when the car was assembled at the factory."

Anonymous, ON (2018 Honda CR-V Touring 1.5-L 4 Cyl turbo)"I started noticing that the cold air was not as cold as it used to be last fall. During the first hot days this spring (April 2024) I noticed a definite lack of cool when running the air conditioning. I took the car to my dealer for evaluation.
