A/C Service for GMC Sierra 2500 HD

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat.

We’ve got experience with GMC vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2016 GMC. Steer your GMC Sierra 2500 HD to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD 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 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 GMC Sierra 2500 HD 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.

Recharge the A/C in Your Sierra 2500 HD

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, 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 use GMC’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD A/C recharges.

Other GMC Sierra 2500 HD A/C Problems

Hot air is a common GMC Sierra 2500 HD A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Sierra 2500 HD.

Questions About 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 HD A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Sierra 2500 HD 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 Sierra 2500 HD 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 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 Sierra 2500 HD's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my Sierra 2500 HD use gas? Sierra 2500 HD 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.
  • Why does my Sierra 2500 HD 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 Sierra 2500 HD creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my Sierra 2500 HD’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Sierra 2500 HD may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
