Guys it appears that the crvs are having common AC compressor fails. Especially if the car is relatively new or as new. But if out of warranty then its a different story.

Why didnt honda brought a recall on this POS compressors?..

Maybe write a letter to the ombudsman or something to find out if they can help.

A good point to keep in mind of is if your not planning to use the AC in any other climate besides summer, before you switch on the AC, just do a quick check and see if all the pressurized joints/connections on the AC hose looks all good and not leaking.

The moment u turn on the AC and if there are no gas, it will definitely destroy the AC seals and worse case compressor.

It maybe a sealed system, but if it has been sitting in hibernation for a long time then the seals will let go.

Just food for thought...
