A/C Repair Service for Your Ford Fiesta

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Ford Fiesta A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Ford vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2017 Ford. Bring your Ford Fiesta to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2017 Ford Fiesta’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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 Ford Fiesta A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Recharge the A/C in Your Fiesta

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2017 Ford Fiesta, 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. 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 after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2017 Ford Fiesta A/C recharges.

Common Ford Fiesta A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Ford Fiesta 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. And smelly A/C in a 2017 Ford Fiesta? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 Fiesta — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2017 Ford Fiesta A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Fiesta air conditioning colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why is my Fiesta 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Fiesta’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Fiesta A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Fiesta 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 Fiesta have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Fiesta creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Fiesta’s A/C to work? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Fiesta’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
