A/C Repair Service for Your Nissan Pathfinder

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. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Nissan Pathfinder?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Nissan vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 2010 Nissan A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Nissan Pathfinder

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2010 Nissan Pathfinder 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." What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Nissan Pathfinder A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Recharge the A/C in Your Pathfinder

When we perform an A/C repair on your 2010 Nissan Pathfinder, 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 Nissan's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2010 Nissan Pathfinder A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Nissan Pathfinder A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Nissan Pathfinder 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2010 Nissan Pathfinder? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Pathfinder.

2010 Nissan Pathfinder A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my Pathfinder 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 Pathfinder A/C put out warm air? 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.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? 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 Pathfinder’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Pathfinder A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your Pathfinder 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 Pathfinder smells 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 Pathfinder to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my Pathfinder’s A/C only work when the car is moving? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Pathfinder’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
