    2005 accord 2.4 liter a/c stopped working. Was told condenser had a hole caused by a rock. Researched and found that numerous owners of honda products have had the same issue.

    I have a 2005 honda accord with fairly low mileage. The a/c stopped working so i brought it to a honda dealer while it was still under warranty. They found that there is a pinhole in the condenser and will not fix the problem because it was due to a road hazard. I feel this is a design flaw. The condenser is located 18 inches above the ground and there is not protection for it at all. It is common for a car to hit…
