CarComplaints.com Notes: While the 2009 CR-V still came equipped with tires that wear out faster than my Grandpa after a turkey dinner, Honda did address an electrical problem with the door locks that plagued owners of previous model years.

After further research, all CR-V's have this problem eventually because the compressor is situated in a position that is too close to the ground. There is no guard to keep all the dirt and debris out of the A/C condenser clutch housing. Newer models have a protective guard to help prevent the dirt from causing this problem. Upon condenser replacement, I've fabricated an aluminum guard that will help to protect the new condenser. I'll update if something goes wrong in the future.
BTW, this is the only repair this vehicle has ever had. The airbags were recall replaced but zero repairs in total at 183,000 and still going strong. No oil burning, no transmission issues, no engine issues, no 4x4 issues and no other issues whatsoever. And I should have bought two of these vehicles!
