A/C Service for 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 lava. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Plymouth Caravelle A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Plymouth vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1987 Plymouth Caravelle A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Plymouth Caravelle

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1987 Plymouth Caravelle’s A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). 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. 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 there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Caravelle A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Plymouth Caravelle, 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Plymouth guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1987 Plymouth Caravelle A/C recharges.

Common 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. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes 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 1987 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 trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Caravelle — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1987 Plymouth Caravelle A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Caravelle air conditioner colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Caravelle A/C? 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 causes A/C system leaks? 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 use gas? Caravelle 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 my Caravelle have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? 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 Caravelle to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why does my Caravelle’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 Caravelle’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
