FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you recharge my AC? +
Yes, but the shop checks for leaks and pressure issues first so you are not paying for refrigerant that escapes again.
Why is my AC cold only while driving? +
That can point to airflow, fan, pressure, condenser, or refrigerant issues. A performance test identifies the cause.
What vehicles do you service AC on? +
Domestic, Japanese, and European AC systems — Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Lexus, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and more. Proper diagnostics happen before any parts are replaced.
