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.

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.
