Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The 2006 civic air conditioner (a/c) stopped workingat only 16,000 miles. the dealer stated that the a/c condenser was punctured by road debris and that it was my responsibilty to pay the $575 for the repair. honda america avoided the issue, and stated the same. after reviewing internet forums it appeared that this was a major design flaw that the a/c condenser unit was not protected and was vulnerable to damage easily. i wasvery upset that honda had not acted with good business practices, and wastrying to avoid the matter. *ak
