A/C Service for Hyundai Veloster

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. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Hyundai Veloster A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Hyundai vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2016 Hyundai Veloster A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Hyundai Veloster

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2016 Hyundai Veloster’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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.” What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Hyundai Veloster A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

A/C Recharge for Hyundai Veloster

Let's say we repair your 2016 Hyundai Veloster A/C system. We will also perform 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 Hyundai’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged 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 2016 Hyundai Veloster A/C recharges.

Common Hyundai Veloster A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Hyundai Veloster A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also include 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. 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 Veloster? 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 Veloster.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2016 Hyundai Veloster A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Veloster 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 do I get hot air from my Veloster 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 Veloster's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Veloster use gasoline?  The air conditioning system in your Veloster 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.
  • My Veloster’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 Veloster to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Veloster’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 Veloster’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
