    2018 AC Failure

    Hey All, I've been MIA on the forum for quite a while, but thought I'd share this... Our 2018 with about 67k miles had an AC failure last week. It turns out there is a known problem with the compressors and the repair will be completely covered (not sure if this is due to HondaCare or a TSB)...

    Where's Kentucky Ken?

    I have his address from the Groundhog in the Clarity Naming Contest. If no one else can find out anything I can drop a snail mail postcard to him. geo

    Charging in the time of coronavirus

    I didn't want to create a new thread called "Packing in the time of coronavirus", so I'll put these here. My wife and daughter made the 3+ hour drive to my daughters college Saturday to just get her books and winter clothes. However once they got started they ended up getting everything but her...

    Driving in highway Clarity suddenly flashes brake and shakes steering wheel

    I've seen it commonly on when a car in front of me takes a highway exit and slows down even though I continue on the highway. geo

    Congress retroactively extends Federal tax credit for home EV chargers, etc.

    Congress retroactively extends Federal tax credit for home EV chargers, etc.

    Weirdly enough, I pulled up my 2018 TT, ran the updates and there is a place for EV chargers in there but running an amended return still did not change my tax liability/refund. geo

    RAV4 Prime PHEV for 2021 - anyone considering adding / jumping ??

    Our 2003 CRV is getting long in the tooth (160k) miles so both the RAV 4, the CRV hybrid and Subaru hybrid/phev are on the list. It may depend on what's actually available when the time comes. geo

    UT gas prices and number of drive axles may the reason for the lack of PHEV / EV / FCV cars ?

    Here's 2017 & 2018 numbers by state that show Utah in the middle of the pack at #23 a bit below North Carolina where I live. It's also interesting to change the sort to Market Share within the state which makes Utah a respectable #14 while dropping North Carolina to #25...

    High Mileage Clarity PHEV - Reliability, Maintenance, Cost

    I did the F52 which extends it to (not by) 5 years and 120,000 miles. My decision was based on the cost of some of the technology in the Clarity which could make for expensive repairs. geo

    High Mileage Clarity PHEV - Reliability, Maintenance, Cost

    3 years 36,000 miles on most of the vehicle with the normal exceptions like safety, emissions and the battery. Service bulletins should be free "forever" I think. You can still buy a Hondacare warranty as long as you are inside the 36,000 miles. I was at 35k+ and went ahead and extended mine...

    Question: Is the High voltage battery under the vehicle, or under the seat as many videos have said.

    The Clarity emergency response guide shows a pretty good view: https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/web/AJA07616.pdf I put a printed copy in my glove compartment just in case. geo
