A/C Repair Service for Your Mitsubishi Tredia

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mitsubishi Tredia A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Mitsubishi vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1988 Mitsubishi A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Mitsubishi Tredia

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1988 Mitsubishi Tredia’s A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mitsubishi Tredia 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.

Tredia A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1988 Mitsubishi Tredia A/C system. We will also perform 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. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Mitsubishi guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1988 Mitsubishi Tredia A/C recharges.

Common Mitsubishi Tredia A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mitsubishi Tredia A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1988 Mitsubishi Tredia? 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 technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Tredia’s A/C!

Questions About 1988 Mitsubishi Tredia A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Tredia air conditioner colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • What’s making my Tredia 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.
  • 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 Tredia’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Tredia A/C use gas? Your Tredia’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my Tredia 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 Tredia creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Tredia’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? Damaged or worn components in your Tredia’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.
