Can I make my F-350 Super Duty 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.

What’s making my F-350 Super Duty A/C put out warm 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 F-350 Super Duty’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 the A/C in my F-350 Super Duty 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 F-350 Super Duty.

What can cause the A/C in my F-350 Super Duty 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 F-350 Super Duty to produce a vinegary odor.

Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my F-350 Super Duty’s A/C to work?

A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your F-350 Super Duty is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.

Ford F-350 Super Duty 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 it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Ford F-350 Super Duty?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Ford vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2010 Ford A/C systems. Steer your Ford F-350 Super Duty to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty’s 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 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 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Ford F-350 Super Duty

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty, 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 Ford'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. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C recharges.

Common Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Ford F-350 Super Duty A/C problem you may 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 your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty? 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 F-350 Super Duty — without all the sweat puddles!
