Service Bulletin

Honda technical service bulletin A23-040 for 2017-2022 Honda CR-V.

Bulletin number
A23-040
Component
Visibility: defroster/defogger/HVAC system
Summary
Service Bulletin - Due to a new North America regulation that introduces a new refrigerant and oil requirement, the compressor shaft seal may leak. The new refrigerant and oil may cause swelling of the compressor shaft seal. The swelling may lead to abnormal wearing of the seal, which may increase seal gaps around the compressor shaft allowing refrigerant to leak out. American Honda is extending the warranty on the A/C compressor shaft seal from the original 3 years to 10 years from the original date of purchase, with no mileage limitation.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 135 complaints in the visibility category.
