Hyundai Sonata A/C Repair

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Hyundai Sonata?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Hyundai vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2016 Hyundai. Steer your Hyundai Sonata to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2016 Hyundai Sonata A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Hyundai Sonata A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Sonata A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2016 Hyundai Sonata A/C system. We will also perform 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. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Hyundai guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant 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 Sonata A/C recharges.

Other Hyundai Sonata A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Hyundai Sonata A/C problem you may encounter. 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 your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns 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 2016 Hyundai Sonata? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Sonata’s A/C!

Questions About 2016 Hyundai Sonata A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Sonata 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 do I get hot air from my Sonata 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 Sonata's A/C system.
  • Is my Sonata A/C powered by gas? Your Sonata’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.
  • My Sonata’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Sonata to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Sonata’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Sonata’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
