A/C Repair Service for Your Mercury Cougar

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mercury Cougar A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with Mercury vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1995 Mercury. Bring your Mercury Cougar to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1995 Mercury Cougar’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mercury Cougar 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.

Cougar A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1995 Mercury Cougar, we’ll also do 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. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Mercury'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 good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1995 Mercury Cougar A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mercury Cougar A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mercury Cougar 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1995 Mercury Cougar? 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 Cougar — without all the sweat puddles!

1995 Mercury Cougar A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my Cougar 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 Cougar 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? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Cougar’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does the A/C in my Cougar rely on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Cougar 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 Cougar 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 Cougar creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Cougar’s A/C only work when the car is moving? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Cougar is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
