Staying cool in your Chevy while driving around Decatur shouldn't be a hassle. Most of the time, you just need to adjust your AC controls to stay comfortable. But if your AC starts acting up, whether it's blowing warm air or giving off an odd smell, Miles Chevrolet's service center has you covered. Our certified technicians are here to diagnose and fix your Chevy's AC quickly and reliably so you can get back to enjoying a comfortable ride.
Why Does My Car's AC Smell?
If you're noticing unpleasant smells, like rotten eggs or mildew, whenever you turn on the AC, it's likely time for a new air filter or a cleaning. A foul odor often means the air filter is clogged and needs to be replaced. In some cases, mold buildup on the evaporator case, possibly due to a clogged drain line, could be the issue. Our technicians can replace your air filter or clean out the mold and clear any clogs, so your air smells fresh again.
Why Is My Chevy's AC Blowing Warm Air?
Warm air blowing from your AC is a common problem. It could be caused by a damaged condenser, a faulty switch, a blown fuse, a compressor issue, or a refrigerant leak. If your AC starts out cold but gradually turns warm, there could be issues like leaky seals, a clogged expansion valve, or a problem with the compressor clutch. Our service team will perform a thorough diagnosis to identify the specific cause and get your AC back to blowing cold air.
How We Fix AC Leaks
If you suspect an AC leak, it's important to bring your vehicle in as soon as possible. Leaks can stem from aging components or moisture exposure, and refrigerant can be corrosive if it contacts moisture. When left unchecked, this corrosion can lead to irreparable damage. Our technicians use specialized tools, like sniffer devices and dyes, to find and fix leaks accurately. The sooner we address a leak, the better we can preserve the life of your AC system.
Why Is My Car's AC Airflow Weak?
Weak airflow from your AC can start as a minor inconvenience, but it often worsens over time. Common causes include a damaged ventilation fan, mold buildup on the evaporator, loose hoses, or worn-out seals. Our team at Miles Chevrolet will quickly diagnose the cause of weak airflow and provide efficient repair services to get your system back in top shape.
