2000 Honda Civic takes over 20 minutes to cool slightly in

Hi joanshady,

Thank you for the donation.

Your question is not clear, can you plaease rephrase it?

I cannot be more clear. I posted two questions about this....read both and then ask me a specific question. I do not know what else to tell you. Make, model, miles, problem in detail as I know it. Please find someone who can answer and understand my question or call me. 703-451-0182

You should have posted oinly ONE question for the same problem and the question that I came across was the one I replied to which is not clear.

Even the first question is not clear and we have to try to guess what is wrong.

2000 Honda Civic Automatic 50000 miles

I have had it fixed twice at Virginia Tire and Auto. First time around 2k. Then they said black death and fixed it again....big bucks again! Now it does not cool much even if I drive at 60 for 20 minutes. Was I taken? What should I do? I asked them when I was in for oil change what was wrong. They said all cars take a while when it is hot out. What is the point of AC then?
I am 80 years old, on O2. I cannot take the heat. Was I taken and what should I do? Do I have to get a new car???? HELP PLEASE.[/quote:c5a89b6a49]

If the cooling efficiency is not as expected, you should get back to the place concerned and tell them either they fix it or you can make a complaint to the local controlling council.

In the meantime you have to make sure that you have something to work on. Get a report for the cooling and a second opinion from a different source regarding the cooling.

It is true that cars would require a little time for the interior to cool down if it is too hot but it should not take too long.

What is the average ambient temperature?
