Plymouth Horizon A/C Repair

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. “Who can fix my Plymouth Horizon A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Plymouth vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1987 Plymouth Horizon A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Plymouth Horizon

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1987 Plymouth Horizon 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Plymouth Horizon A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Plymouth Horizon

While your 1987 Plymouth Horizon’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Plymouth's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1987 Plymouth Horizon A/C recharges.

Other Plymouth Horizon A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Plymouth Horizon A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. 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. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. And smelly A/C in a 1987 Plymouth Horizon? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Horizon’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1987 Plymouth Horizon A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Horizon 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.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Horizon A/C? 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? 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 Horizon's A/C system.
  • Does the A/C in my Horizon rely 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 Horizon.
  • Why does the A/C in my Horizon smell like vinegar? 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 Horizon to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Horizon’s A/C to work? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Horizon’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
