In 2017, there was a recall on the air conditioning system of the Honda CR-V because the cooling trigger may not engage, thus preventing the A/C from cooling the car. The issue is likely caused by a seized A/C compressor, which can damage the A/C system. If your vehicle is under warranty, the repair will be free as long as it meets the manufacturer's specifications. If not covered, expect to pay between $800 and $1100 for the replacement, including parts and labor. Labor fees make up the majority of the cost for this complex repair.

A problem with the air conditioning unit causing inadequate cooling led to a recall for the 2017 Honda CRV.

Our dealer assured us that there is no recall, but it's surprising considering the number of people facing the same issue. My family has been loyal Honda customers for 40 years, but if there's no recall, we won't be buying Hondas anymore. This decision has cost Honda 15 customers from just my family. It's disappointing.

I just phoned the car dealership, and they said that there has not been any recall as per their records.

In 2017, my Honda CRV had an issue with the AC that began last year. I spent $650 to investigate and recharge the coolant just before colder weather arrived. However, the problem resurfaced with the warmer weather, and this time, they found a compressor leak, demanding $2500 for the repair. As a result, I have decided to trade in my Honda for a Subaru. I will be switching brands as I have purchased multiple Hondas in the past.

My Honda doesn't have working air conditioning, and it has only 39,000 kilometers on it.

Certainly! Here is a paraphrased and unique version of the given text: "My 2017 CR-V has a non-functional air conditioning system. The cost of repair is $1384 plus tax. I'm wondering if this issue is covered under warranty.

In scorching weather above 90 degrees, our 2017 Honda CRV has been blasting hot air. Two mechanic shops suspect a compressor leak and advised reaching out to Honda for financial assistance. Visiting the Honda dealership, they recommended replacing the AC discharge hose for roughly $900 and a $300 recharge. Despite the urgency, we agreed to the repairs. However, upon picking up the car the following day, the AC was still malfunctioning after just 10 minutes. They diagnosed a compressor issue related to the new freon and hose, hinting at a potential reimbursement during a recall. The CRV remains at the dealership as they await compressor parts after quoting about $1,100 for replacement at a discounted rate. Contacting Honda yielded no assistance due to being out of warranty. The dealership is understanding, offering a loaner car and expressing regret for the repeated problems with the new freon and hose.

In 2017, the compressor in my Honda CR-V failed for the same reason. This issue appears to be quite common with Honda vehicles. As a result, I have decided not to purchase another Honda and I strongly recommend that everyone avoid buying Honda cars.

Similar Situation with a 2017 Honda CRV. Around 45,000 miles, the vehicle started making high-pitched noises from the hood and the AC stopped blowing cold air. The dealership found a leaking discharge hose and a faulty AC compressor seal, which cost $2100 to replace. Five months later, a new noise started when the AC was on and stopped when turned off. The dealership diagnosed a faulty fan motor, but an independent mechanic suggested the issue could be with the thermal expansion valve or evaporator. The car is now back at the dealership for further inspection. Considering these recurring issues, should I sell the car once it's fixed?

I decided to purchase a Honda due to its reputation for reliability. Fortunately, I also invested in an extended warranty, although it has its limits. If my Honda continues to have problems and the warranty expires without Honda taking action, I will switch to Toyota, a brand I have never had any issues with. Honda must improve their customer support to keep loyal customers like myself.

The air conditioning in my 2017 Honda CRV started having issues last year, just 2 months after the warranty ended. Initially, the repair was attributed to a leaky hose, but now the dealer claims it was misdiagnosed and there is actually a compressor leak. They are estimating the repair to cost around $2000.

My 2017 CR-V just experienced a malfunction with the air conditioning compressor. The car has been well-maintained and only has 55,000 miles on it. Needless to say, I'm not pleased with this situation.

I'm dealing with the same problem with my 2017 CRV. They gave me an estimate of $2,620 plus tax. David, where did you find the $1,100 quote?
-
My 2017 CRV is experiencing the same air conditioning problem. Honda is recommending a new compressor, but I'm not pleased with the $2100 price tag. It appears that Honda is aware of this issue but has not acknowledged it or initiated a recall.
-
My compressor and discharge hose developed a leak, costing me over $1600 to replace. I consider it a good bargain.
-
There's a similar problem with the 2017 CR-V leaking that occurred after the warranty expired, costing around $1,200 plus tax.

I had a similar problem with my 2017 CRV and went to a Pep Boys repair shop, where they gave me an estimate of $2300 for the repairs.
-
I've driven my car for 75,000 miles and now the air conditioning isn't working. I was given a repair quote of $2,900 and wasn't informed about any recalls. I've decided to avoid buying Hondas in the future.
-
Just got a notification from Honda. I'm scheduled for a check to see if the broken air conditioner is included in the extended warranty. I'll keep you posted on the result. Honda should've admitted to the faulty compressor issue sooner. If the warranty doesn't cover the repair, I'll ditch my CRV and won't consider buying another Honda.

According to Honda, it is not classified as a recall but rather as a technical 'advisory'.

My car's AC compressor broke down right before my vacation at the end of May, which cost me $2150 to fix. When I got back, I learned that Honda was extending the warranty on the compressor for 10 years. I filed a claim online and uploaded photos of my receipt from the Honda dealership. They said it would take 6-8 weeks to get a refund, but I'm still waiting. Also, Honda now uses a new coolant for the AC, which costs over $500 to refill the system if there's a leak. This was a significant part of the $2150 repair cost, around 1/4 of it!

My 2017 Honda CRV's air conditioning suddenly stopped blowing cold air! I brought it to Buckeye Honda for repairs under the extended warranty, but they claimed the issue of leaking hoses isn't covered, and they quoted $1300 to fix just two hoses. To top it off, they mentioned a possible engine knocking noise related to the AC, which they implied would require more expensive repairs. I am concerned that they might simply refill the Freon without fixing the underlying problems and charge exorbitant fees. We own three Hondas, and I work for a Honda supplier, but this experience has made me reconsider our loyalty to the brand.

I own a 2017 Crv and I will never buy another Honda. The air conditioning was malfunctioning and blowing hot air all summer, making driving a pretty miserable experience. So long, Honda 👋

I'm going to drain my savings to cover the air conditioning repairs for my 2017 Honda and 2019 Pilot. I've had to make four trips to the dealership for the CRV and another four for the Pilot, costing me thousands of dollars. It's disappointing that the dealerships take advantage of this manufacturing defect to make a profit. It's a shame that Honda hasn't taken any action on this issue. As a result, my family won't be purchasing any more Honda vehicles.
