A/C Service for Lincoln MKZ

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. “Who can fix my Lincoln MKZ A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Lincoln vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2017 Lincoln A/C systems. Bring your Lincoln MKZ to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2017 Lincoln MKZ 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.” What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Lincoln MKZ A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

MKZ A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2017 Lincoln MKZ 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Lincoln guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system 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 2017 Lincoln MKZ A/C recharges.

Common Lincoln MKZ A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Lincoln MKZ A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. And smelly A/C in a 2017 Lincoln MKZ? 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 trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your MKZ — without all the sweat puddles!

2017 Lincoln MKZ A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my MKZ 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 MKZ A/C? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 MKZ's A/C system.
  • Is my MKZ A/C powered by gas? MKZ 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.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my MKZ smells like vinegar? 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 MKZ creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my MKZ’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your MKZ’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
