A/C Repair Service for Your Dodge Ram 2500 Van

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. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Dodge vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1999 Dodge. Bring your Dodge Ram 2500 Van to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. 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 Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Dodge Ram 2500 Van

While your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van’s air conditioner is being serviced, 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 Dodge’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C recharges.

Other Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems include 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 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Ram 2500 Van’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 Van A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Ram 2500 Van 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 do I get hot air from my Ram 2500 Van 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 can cause an A/C system leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Ram 2500 Van's A/C system.
  • Does the A/C in my Ram 2500 Van rely on 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 Ram 2500 Van.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my Ram 2500 Van smells like vinegar? 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 Ram 2500 Van to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my Ram 2500 Van’s A/C only work when the car is moving? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Ram 2500 Van is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
  • Where can I get my Ram 2500 Van’s A/C repaired? Firestone Complete Auto Care has decades of experience inspecting and repairing Ram 2500 Van air conditioning systems. Schedule an A/C repair appointment at one of our locations near you today.
