A/C Service for Ford Explorer Sport Trac

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with Ford vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2005 Ford A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Ford Explorer Sport Trac

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac’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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Explorer Sport Trac A/C Recharge

While your 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac’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. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Ford guidelines. The A/C system is recharged 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 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C recharges.

Other Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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 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. And smelly A/C in a 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Explorer Sport Trac’s A/C!

Questions About 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Explorer Sport Trac 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 Explorer Sport Trac 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? 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 Explorer Sport Trac's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my Explorer Sport Trac use gas? Explorer Sport Trac air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Explorer Sport Trac to smell like vinegar? 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 Explorer Sport Trac to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my Explorer Sport Trac’s A/C only work when the car is moving? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Explorer Sport Trac may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
