A/C Repair Service for Your Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Oldsmobile vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1987 Oldsmobile. Steer your Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon’s 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 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 Salon 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.

Cutlass Salon A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon 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 use Oldsmobile’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon A/C recharges.

Common Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon A/C problem you may 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 may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Salon? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Cutlass Salon — without all the sweat puddles!

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

  • Can I make my Cutlass Salon 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 Cutlass Salon A/C? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Cutlass Salon’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does the A/C in my Cutlass Salon rely on gas? Cutlass Salon air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.
  • Why does the A/C in my Cutlass Salon 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 Salon creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my Cutlass Salon’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Cutlass Salon may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
