Sorry to hear that things are not getting off to a great start with your newly acquired Pilot. I am not sure what the initial problem was they were trying to solve, but I will take a guess. My guess is that the compressor had a catastrophic failure. If that is what happened it will blow particles from the compressor into the system. This basically contaminates the system with small debris particles. If that is what happened, you have to flush the system (a flush machine is best), change the receiver/dryer element ( a filter of sorts), and they recommend changing the expansion valve (if can get easily clogged).
The condenser usually catches most of the debris and I usually just replace that to hedge my bets.
If, it was a catastrophic failure those can be a real mess if you are not diligent about getting the system clean before installing a new compressor. I have seen it happen before and it was similar to what you are describing. Multiple compressor failures.
If they are familiar with AC system repair I am sure they know about system contamination. But, that is what it sounds like to me.
