A/C Repair Service for Your Cadillac Escalade ESV

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Cadillac vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Cadillac Escalade ESV

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Recharge the A/C in Your Escalade ESV

Let's say we repair your 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C system. We will also perform 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Cadillac guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C recharges.

Other Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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 you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Escalade ESV — without all the sweat puddles!

2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my Escalade ESV air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Escalade ESV A/C blowing hot air? 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 can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Escalade ESV’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does my Escalade ESV A/C run on gas? Your Escalade ESV’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • Why does my Escalade ESV have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your Escalade ESV smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Escalade ESV’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Escalade ESV may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
