Chevrolet Corvette A/C Repair

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Chevrolet Corvette?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know our way around Chevrolet vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1991 Chevrolet A/C systems. Steer your Chevrolet Corvette to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1991 Chevrolet Corvette A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Chevrolet Corvette A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Corvette A/C Recharge

While your 1991 Chevrolet Corvette’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Chevrolet's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1991 Chevrolet Corvette A/C recharges.

Other Chevrolet Corvette A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Chevrolet Corvette A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes 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 1991 Chevrolet Corvette? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Corvette — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1991 Chevrolet Corvette A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Corvette air conditioner colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why is my Corvette A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Corvette’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.
  • Is my Corvette A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your Corvette 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.
  • Why does my Corvette have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your Corvette to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Corvette’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Corvette’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
