A/C Repair Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GLE550e

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mercedes-Benz GLE550e?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2018 Mercedes-Benz. Bring your Mercedes-Benz GLE550e to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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" is a machine that's run along parts of your Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Recharge the A/C in Your GLE550e

While your 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE550e’s air conditioner is being serviced, 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 Mercedes-Benz's recommendations. 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 ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C recharges.

Common Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 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. And smelly A/C in a 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE550e? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your GLE550e’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE550e A/C Systems

  • How do I make my GLE550e 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 GLE550e 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 GLE550e’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does the A/C in my GLE550e rely on gas?  The air conditioning system in your GLE550e 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.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my GLE550e smells like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your GLE550e smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my GLE550e’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 GLE550e’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
