2018 Honda Civic 4dr Hatch

turbocharged 180hp 1.5L I4 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD

5000 mi Battery died while sat in the driveway few days. Dealership replaced battery under warranty. 
32000 mi Battery was showing issue the day before and the next day the car started again and arrived at work and only battery die at my work parking garage. Jump started the car and drop off the car for warranty check only comfirm again for "bad battery cell" and replaced under warranty. Guess I will carry a jumper battery with me from now on. 
43000 mi At 43k my ac now is out of freon and dealership off the bat want $250 diagnostic of the ac. This is a known issue with 2016-2018 civics and my civic vin# is not cover under the ac extended warranty for 10 years for whatever reason and now I'm stuck. I went to the auto parts store and purchased a freon gauge and can of 1234yf freon and hope the leaks is not big. But come on Honda. 
44000 mi

at 44k my battery died again and this is 3rd battery within 2 1/2 years. The battery was died and can't recharge after jumping. Dealership confirm again battery and not electrical issues. I will trade in the car and can't believe how unreliable Honda is.
