Mitsubishi Lancer A/C Repair

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. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mitsubishi Lancer?" Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know our way around Mitsubishi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2016 Mitsubishi. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Mitsubishi Lancer

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). 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." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Mitsubishi Lancer A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Lancer A/C Recharge

While your 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer’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). Then, they’ll use Mitsubishi’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mitsubishi Lancer A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mitsubishi Lancer A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Other common A/C problems 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. 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 Lancer — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2016 Mitsubishi Lancer A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Lancer air conditioner 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 Lancer 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 Lancer's A/C system.
  • Does my Lancer A/C use gas?  The air conditioning system in your Lancer 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 Lancer’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Lancer creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my Lancer’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Lancer is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
