During these hot summer months, your car’s air conditioner could be considered your best friend. Regular maintenance is the key to keeping your air conditioner running on full blast all summer long.
How frequently should you have your car’s air conditioner checked to make sure it is operating properly? First, start by reading your vehicle’s manual to see what the manufacturer recommends; there is not a standard recommendation for all vehicles.
There are warning signs that can let drivers know that A/C problems could be in their future, including:
- Coolant stains appearing underneath your vehicle
- Moldy or stranger smell in your car cabin
- Water leaks into your car
- Strange sound coming from your air conditioner when it’s running
- Air conditioner no longer cooling your vehicle as efficiently as it did before
- Dirt, debris, or damage visible on your air conditioner compressor
- Air conditioner blowing hot air flow, refrigerant loss, or broken or worn parts
