A/C Repair Service for Your Plymouth Caravelle

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. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Plymouth Caravelle A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Plymouth vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1985 Plymouth. Bring your Plymouth Caravelle to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1985 Plymouth Caravelle’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 think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Plymouth Caravelle A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Caravelle A/C Recharge

While your 1985 Plymouth Caravelle’s air conditioner is being serviced, 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). Then, they’ll use Plymouth’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 ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1985 Plymouth Caravelle A/C recharges.

Other Plymouth Caravelle A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Plymouth Caravelle 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1985 Plymouth Caravelle? 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 Caravelle’s A/C!

Questions About 1985 Plymouth Caravelle A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Caravelle 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 Caravelle 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Caravelle's A/C system.
  • Does my Caravelle A/C run on gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your Caravelle.
  • Why does my Caravelle have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your Caravelle smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Caravelle’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Caravelle’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
