Common A/C Problems & Warning Signs
Your vehicle often gives telltale signs when its A/C system is struggling. Be on the lookout for:
- Air blowing
warm or lukewarm instead of cold
- Weak or restricted airflow through vents

- Visible leaks or oily residue near A/C components

If you experience any of these, it’s time for a professional A/C inspection to prevent further damage.

Frequently Asked Questions (A/C Service)
How often should I have my car’s A/C system checked?
It’s wise to inspect your A/C at least once a year, ideally before summer. Regular checkups help catch leaks, low refrigerant, and early wear before they become major repairs.
Why is my A/C blowing warm air now?
Warm airflow can stem from low refrigerant, leaks, a failing compressor, a clogged condenser, or malfunctioning expansion valves. We’ll diagnose precisely and restore cooling.
Can I recharge my A/C myself?
DIY kits exist, but they often don’t include leak detection, proper system diagnostics, or guaranteed performance. Professional A/C service ensures correct refrigerant levels and finds the root cause of issues.
