I bought my CRV used, it is a 98, i think i bought it in july of 2000, it happened i think a year later, I remember the mileage was about 38,000 , just out of warranty!! I did have an extended warranty and it payed for itself 2 times over , the cost of the repair at the dealer was $ 1400.00 if i remember right. Mine was making a strange noise every once in a while which i couldnt replicate for the dealer, then one day i was out driving around and it really started making a loud noise, i shut the ac off and drove straight to the dealer. I had the service advisor come out and told him what it was doing and he started up the CRV and kicked on the ac and boom it blew a hole the size of a quarter in the compressor. The entire bill was covered by the extended warranty except for something like $ 60 or something for some bogus thing like a " flush" i was told it was fully covered when i brought it in and when i picked it up they hand me the bill, i raised all kinds of hell but it was the end of the day and there was no one to complain to. I paid it under protest and then really started raising hell with EVERYONE at the dealer and Honda of America, it took me over a month and at least 10 calls to the service manager but i finally got my money back. I also told them to NEVER send me anything from this dealership again and that i would never bring my car back there. They didnt send me anything for at least a year , then i got a letter from the sales dept saying they would give me $ 50 if i referred anyone to the dealer that bought a car. I sent the same letter i recieved back to them and told them if i every get anything from them ever again i would consider it harrasment and i would turn the matter over to my attorney. That was the last time i heard from them and i now take my CRV to another dealer. This dealer has screwed over countless people or so i have heard.
