A/C Repair Service for Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Oldsmobile vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1987 Oldsmobile A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C system to see if repair work is required. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Cutlass Ciera A/C Recharge

While your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera’s air conditioner is being serviced, 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. Then, they’ll use Oldsmobile’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re all set. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Other common A/C problems 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 may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera? 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 Cutlass Ciera.

Frequently Asked Questions for 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Cutlass Ciera 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 is my Cutlass Ciera A/C blowing hot 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 Cutlass Ciera’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Is my Cutlass Ciera A/C powered by gas?  The air conditioning system in your Cutlass Ciera 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 Cutlass Ciera smell 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 Cutlass Ciera creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Cutlass Ciera’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Cutlass Ciera is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
