fook! quick help! a/c broken

ok so i get in my car turn on the a/c and right away i notice a problem. Just wait a few minutes to see if it was just in my head but NOPE the a/c is broken! all i feel is just warm air, popped the hood and checked the a/c. both of the fans were not moving and the left fan appear to be coming off the rotor thing????

my question, will this be covered under the extended warranty or am i screwed? also i have 57k miles exact!

If you have an extended warranty from Acura, why is it even a concern?
Like I said....should be covered.

had my compressor replaced before I came down to Houston, I took it in, because when it kicked on it was making this loud whining noise.

Personally I wouldn't worry about it until AFTER I've seen the dealer. *IF it's not covered...then you ask.

If so…you’re good.

I had a problem with my metel AC lines...they were touching and every time the engin would move the 2 lines would rub together. This made a hole and all the coolant leaked out with out me seeing it. It did the same thing...just hot air. I dont know if that is your problem but you might want to take a peak. This happened on my 01 cl-s auto.
