Well, I went and did it! Something happened to my 2010 North Edition to where I had cool air from the ac before I went on holidays last week, but on the way home no way would it work. Now it's at my local dealer and they say that a rock went thru and put a hole in the condenser and all the refrigerant leaked out. And as far as what they told me, everything else is fine. And being as it wasn't a manufacturer's defect, it's not covered under warranty, so the cost to repair is out of my own pocket! Damn!
My only recourse is to purchase a new condenser from where I work and replace it myself, then get a shop I know to recharge the system. That's the easy part. The hard part is how hard is it to replace the condenser? Anyone here done that before on these models?
I am thoroughly enjoying this vehicle since I got it, and it gets better fuel economy than the 2006 HHR I traded for it! If someone could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated!!!
