A/C Service for Subaru XV Crosstrek

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. “Who can fix my Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with Subaru vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 2014 Subaru. Bring your Subaru XV Crosstrek to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Subaru XV Crosstrek

Let's say we repair your 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek 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. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Subaru's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C recharges.

Common Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Subaru XV Crosstrek 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. If you notice that your A/C system’s air is cold at first, then quickly goes 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 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek? 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. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your XV Crosstrek — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek A/C Systems

  • How can I make my XV Crosstrek 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 XV Crosstrek 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 XV Crosstrek's A/C system.
  •  Does the A/C in my XV Crosstrek use gas? XV Crosstrek 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.
  • What can cause the A/C in my XV Crosstrek to smell 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 XV Crosstrek creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my XV Crosstrek’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your XV Crosstrek may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
