Buick Enclave A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Buick Enclave A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Buick vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2013 Buick A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Buick Enclave

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2013 Buick Enclave A/C system to see if repair work is required. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Buick Enclave A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Enclave A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2013 Buick Enclave, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll use Buick’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2013 Buick Enclave A/C recharges.

Common Buick Enclave A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Buick Enclave A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Other common A/C problems include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2013 Buick Enclave? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Enclave — without all the sweat puddles!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2013 Buick Enclave A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Enclave air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Enclave A/C? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Enclave’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does the A/C in my Enclave use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Enclave does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • My Enclave’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Enclave creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Enclave’s A/C only work when the car is moving? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Enclave may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
