Took it to a local Honda aftermarket shop they said lines were freezing and need new lines. I don't know about this one help me stay cool please!!!

What exactly was bubbling and where?

Took it to a local Honda aftermarket shop they said lines were freezing and need new lines. I don't know about this one help me stay cool please!!!

What lines were freezing? Or did you mean the evaporator was freezing? Did they say what was causing this?

Coolant

Coolant was bubbling from the line at the a/c hook-up. And the shop couldn't tell me much other than the lines were freezing so I don't know what to do.

The bubbling was a leak at the valve. Did you finish charging the system with the proper weight of refrigerant and cap the valve? Does the A/C still blow cold at least once in a while?
