problem #2

2009Aug 17

Accord EXL 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 14,800 miles

Right from the day I bought this lemon from Gunn Honda located in San Antonio, Texas, I complained about the performance of the AC system. The cooling capacity has always been limited to state the least. As an example, the car has dual-side controlled temperature, and even at a setpoint of 65F, the AC did not manage to keep the car reasonably cool. The staff at the Gunn Honda dealership disregarded my complaints. After several complaints they decided to replicate the problem. There's only one problem - the ambient temperature was 95-100F, but the poorly trained staff at the Gunn Honda dealership tested the AC outlet temperature while the vehicle was positioned inside an airconditioned building!

Having earned a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering, I was rather surprised about the poor performance of the Gunn Honda dealership. At 14,800 miles, during my second oil change checkup, they finally tried to enhance the performance of the AC, and yes it did help, but only marginally. I would say that the AC performance of my vehicle is still only about 75%. I am very disappointed in the quality of my 2008 Honda Accord, but I am even more disappointed in Honda Motor Co. for not standing behind their warranty. This is my last Honda vehicle that I will own.
