If you are experiencing issues with your vehicle’s air conditioner or heating system, there’s no need to suffer from an unpleasant ride. Amherst Autoworks’ trained and certified technicians will diagnose the problem and let you know all possible repair options to save you time and money and get you back on the road.
Your vehicle’s air conditioning system is designed not only to keep you cool on hot days, but also lowering moisture levels in the air for window defogging. This works along with your cabin air filters and fans to circulate this refreshing breeze. Today’s auto air conditioning systems are working in some capacity almost every time you run the car, often under extreme conditions.
Like many aspects of car maintenance, treating issues with your vehicle’s air conditioning system early can help prevent costly major repairs. For example, running an air conditioning system with low refrigerant levels will eventually damage the A/C compressor. Repairing or replacing the compressor will likely be more expensive than finding and sealing the leak and refilling the refrigerant. Air conditioner system components such as the air conditioner compressor, the evaporator, receiver dryer, the condenser, belts, hoses, and pulleys need to be regularly inspected for wear and leaks so that your system performs like it should.
Like many other components within your vehicle, the A/C system has a few warning signs that’ll inform drivers when it’s failing. Common symptoms it’s time to service your air conditioning system include an inoperative or noisy fan, stale-smelling air coming through the vents, visible coolant leaks on the ground, and of course reduced cooling capability.
At Amherst Autoworks, we’ll make sure that all areas of your vehicle’s heating and air conditioning system are tested, and if any maintenance or repairs are needed, they will be done promptly at fair and reasonable prices. Our technicians have the experience and equipment needed to service your air conditioner professionally and responsibly.
