Dealer Message - Today, August 9, 2019, American Honda is announcing a warranty extension for certain 2016-18 Civic vehicles. This warranty extension covers the A/C condenser to address concerns of leaking refrigerant. American Honda is extending the warranty on the A/C condenser from the original 3 years to 10 years from the original date of purchase.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
