Hyundai Santa Fe A/C Repair

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Hyundai Santa Fe A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Hyundai vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe A/C systems. Bring your Hyundai Santa Fe to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Hyundai Santa Fe A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your Santa Fe

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe, we’ll also do 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). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Hyundai's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe A/C recharges.

Common Hyundai Santa Fe A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Hyundai Santa Fe A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Santa Fe’s A/C!

Questions About 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Santa Fe 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 do I get hot air from my Santa Fe A/C? 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 Santa Fe's A/C system.
  • Does the A/C in my Santa Fe rely on gas? Your Santa Fe’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • Why does my Santa Fe have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? 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 Santa Fe to produce a vinegary odor.
  • What is causing my Santa Fe’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Santa Fe may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
