A/C Service for Mitsubishi Raider

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Mitsubishi Raider A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Mitsubishi vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2009 Mitsubishi. Bring your Mitsubishi Raider to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2009 Mitsubishi Raider’s 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 any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mitsubishi Raider A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Raider A/C Recharge

While your 2009 Mitsubishi Raider’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do 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 Mitsubishi guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2009 Mitsubishi Raider A/C recharges.

Common Mitsubishi Raider A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Mitsubishi Raider A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. 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 2009 Mitsubishi Raider? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 Raider’s A/C!

2009 Mitsubishi Raider A/C System FAQs

  • How can I make my Raider 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.
  • What’s making my Raider A/C put out warm air? 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 can cause an A/C system 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 Raider’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Is my Raider A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your Raider 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.
  • Why does the A/C in my Raider smell like vinegar? 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 Raider to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • What is causing my Raider’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your Raider’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
