 I owned a 2006 honda civic, there was a problem where the air conditioner (a/c) condenser was located. it seemed that many people were experiencing this problem. the a/c in the car was not working, brought to honda, they told me that there was a hole in the condenser from road debris. this was a design issue and should be under warranty. therewas no protection on the grille. the grille was wide open.*ak
