It happens to me so often that I just expect it now rather than getting upset & raising my blood pressure. On my AC issue last year I got a bad condenser fan motor from Grainger, a bad compressor from Newell and a bad solder job from tech in Phoenix. Have had as many as 3 failed Xantrex chargers in a row from factory. Last set of 4 tires had 1 that would not balance & had to be replaced. So... it does happen.
It is very possible, reman compressor [by who?] is $800, brand new one $4800. Once bought a remanufactured water pump,
got it home and looked at it. No seal on shaft! The impeller and shaft actually rattled in the housing.
It is just strange to have the same exact problem twice in a row.
