How can I make my Pacifica air conditioner 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 is my Pacifica 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 Pacifica’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 Pacifica A/C use gas?

While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your Pacifica.

My Pacifica’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that?

If the air conditioning in your Pacifica 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 Pacifica’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 Pacifica’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

Chrysler Pacifica A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my Chrysler Pacifica A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Chrysler vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2017 Chrysler Pacifica A/C systems. Bring your Chrysler Pacifica to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2017 Chrysler Pacifica 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." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Chrysler Pacifica A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Pacifica A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2017 Chrysler Pacifica, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Chrysler's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2017 Chrysler Pacifica A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Chrysler Pacifica A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Chrysler Pacifica A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2017 Chrysler Pacifica? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Pacifica’s A/C!
