A/C Service for Plymouth Acclaim

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. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Plymouth Acclaim A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We’ve got experience with Plymouth vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1991 Plymouth Acclaim A/C systems. Bring your Plymouth Acclaim to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1991 Plymouth Acclaim’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. 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.” What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Plymouth Acclaim 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 Acclaim

Let's say we repair your 1991 Plymouth Acclaim A/C system. We will also perform 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). Then, they’ll use Plymouth’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 are trained to efficiently perform 1991 Plymouth Acclaim A/C recharges.

Common Plymouth Acclaim A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Plymouth Acclaim A/C problem you may encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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 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 1991 Plymouth Acclaim? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Acclaim.

Frequently Asked Questions for 1991 Plymouth Acclaim A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Acclaim 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 Acclaim 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 can cause an A/C system leak? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Acclaim’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 Acclaim use gas? Acclaim 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.
  • My Acclaim’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your Acclaim to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Acclaim’s A/C to work? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Acclaim is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
