Chrysler Town & Country 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 take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Chrysler Town & Country A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Chrysler vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1986 Chrysler A/C systems. Bring your Chrysler Town & Country to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1986 Chrysler Town & Country 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Chrysler Town & Country A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Town & Country

Let's say we repair your 1986 Chrysler Town & Country A/C system. We will also perform 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. 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 all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1986 Chrysler Town & Country A/C recharges.

Common Chrysler Town & Country A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Chrysler Town & Country A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes warm, this may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1986 Chrysler Town & Country? 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. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Town & Country — without all the sweat puddles!

1986 Chrysler Town & Country A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my Town & Country 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 Town & Country A/C blowing hot air? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Town & Country’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 Town & Country A/C use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Town & Country 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 Town & Country have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your Town & Country to produce a vinegary odor.
  • What is causing my Town & Country’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 Town & Country’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
