GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C Repair

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. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my GMC Yukon XL 1500?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know GMC vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2013 GMC A/C systems. Bring your GMC Yukon XL 1500 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2013 GMC Yukon XL 1500 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 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 GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Yukon XL 1500 A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2013 GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C system. We will also perform 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 GMC’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 all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2013 GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C recharges.

Common GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes 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 2013 GMC Yukon XL 1500? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Yukon XL 1500.

Questions About 2013 GMC Yukon XL 1500 A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Yukon XL 1500 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 is my Yukon XL 1500 A/C blowing hot air? 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? 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 Yukon XL 1500’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Yukon XL 1500 A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Yukon XL 1500 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 the A/C in my Yukon XL 1500 smell 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 Yukon XL 1500 to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my Yukon XL 1500’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 Yukon XL 1500 is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
