Plymouth Neon A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Plymouth Neon?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Plymouth vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1998 Plymouth A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Plymouth Neon

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1998 Plymouth Neon’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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Plymouth Neon 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.

Recharge the A/C in Your Neon

Let's say we repair your 1998 Plymouth Neon 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Plymouth guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant 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 1998 Plymouth Neon A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Plymouth Neon A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Plymouth Neon A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm 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 1998 Plymouth Neon? 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. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Neon — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1998 Plymouth Neon A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Neon 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.
  • What’s making my Neon 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 causes A/C system leaks? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Neon’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does the A/C in my Neon 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 Neon.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Neon to 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 Neon to produce a vinegary odor.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Neon’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 Neon is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
