Wife complained of A/C not working. Noticed underside of engine covered in some kind of fluid, but not engine oil or transmission fluid. My go-to Independent shop said a high pressure a/c line ruptured and leaked all the fluid out. Repair bill notes - "FIXED A/C: REPLACED TWO DISCHARGE PIPES AND RECHARGED A/C". Total costs - $700+. Mechanic noted that a h/p line was rubbing against something and over time caused a crack. I consider this a defect in manufacturing or design or both. This is a mark down on MDX reliability. This is not the first time the a/c went bad. Previously, couple of years back, the a/c had failed due to a bad A/C Compressor Clutch Relay, which, fortunately was a cheap fix after some internet search.
