A/C Service for Ram 1500 Classic

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. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Ram 1500 Classic A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Ram vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2020 Ram. Bring your Ram 1500 Classic to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 2020 Ram 1500 Classic’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. 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 Ram 1500 Classic A/C system to detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Ram 1500 Classic

Let's say we repair your 2020 Ram 1500 Classic 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 Ram’s specifications to evacuate the system. 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 2020 Ram 1500 Classic A/C recharges.

Common Ram 1500 Classic A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Ram 1500 Classic A/C problem you may 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. 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. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 2020 Ram 1500 Classic? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your 1500 Classic.

Questions About 2020 Ram 1500 Classic A/C Systems

  • Can I make my 1500 Classic 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 1500 Classic A/C? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your 1500 Classic’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 running the A/C in my 1500 Classic use gasoline? Your 1500 Classic’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my 1500 Classic smells like vinegar? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your 1500 Classic creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my 1500 Classic’s A/C to work? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your 1500 Classic may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
