Took the Elite into the dealership yesterday at 8AM. They called today around 11AM and said the vehicle is ready and the AC is blowing ice cubes. Just got back home and took a look under the hood. Both protective caps on the charging lines are missing! I live on a crushed basalt rock road. Extremely dusty this time of year. After the grim gets into this charging area, those valves will have a difficult time seating when the system needs service again.

So much for QC.

Stuck,
 
Well I posted a few weeks ago that I took my Passport in for the common AC problem. They tested it and filled the refrigerant and it worked great, but I'm already feeling it get warmer and warmer each day. Looks like it's going back to service in a few days.

I’m having big issues w my passport ac. Has been returned to the dealer 3x now . First repair was an overcharged ac unit - fixed it , w some improvement - I have a meat thermometer and check the temp- when cAr is set at 73 it blows out 86 and 80 in the front and a whopping 104 in the back . They compared it to other Hondas and said it is behaving the exact same way, and that that is just the way the passport works. That I should run it on auto. The fan blows and a five or six on high, in the car never calls, and is only 70° out around here. I brought it to another dealership, and they had the same exact response as the first dealership. But the same troubleshooting mechanism. Both dealerships told me there is nothing that they can do, but there has been no recall, and until there are more complaints I have to live with it. As of now The regional service person is supposed to contact me and I will sit in the car and I will listen to her tell me that when the interior is set at 73, and it blows out 104° but that is normal and there is nothing to be done about it. There is a blow dryer. I am shocked that this is the response that I’m getting, and I feel like I have no where to turn at this point. I do not know how they are OK with saying that it blows at 1:04, and they confirm that, and say that I should set the temperature to lower to get the temperature lower.

Was your ac ultimately repaired ?
 
Lrepper, the responses you are receiving from your dealership are rediculous and morainic. You need to escalate your situation to Honda regional management. The dealership appears to be impotent. Ask for the regional Honda representative and have your issues with your PP in writing as well as a one to one discussion. There have been extensive AC discussions here at the Forum but they have all/mostly have been resolved/repaired successfully. Yours should be too.

This is the air intake temp to vent output temp specs as per Honda for the passport. There is no reason your vent should ever blow out 104 degrees.

Sounds like it might be an issue with the rear vent control motor. Maybe they unplugged during previous repairs or it just doesn’t work? It sounds like it’s stuck on heat either way.

And 80 and 86 sound pretty high in the front vents too
 
Dating is a excursion that encompasses the deviltry of human coherence, personal excrescence, and far-out discoveries. It is a process to which individuals traverse romantic possibilities, getting to recall each other on a deeper level. Dating allows people to allowance experiences, market ideas, and create deep connections.

In the realm of dating, whole encounters a different string of emotions. There's the exhilaration of convocation someone contemporary, the anticipation of a first fixture, and the quivering of discovering common interests and shared values. It is a time of vulnerability and self-discovery as individuals public themselves up to the potentiality of rapture and companionship.

Serviceable communication lies at the will of dating, facilitating competence and correlation between two people. It involves running listening, virtuous expression, and empathy, creating a gap on authentic dialogue. From top to bottom communication, individuals can inquire their compatibility, exchange thoughts and dreams, and raise a foundation of trust.
