A/C Service for Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport

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 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Volkswagen vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C systems. Steer your Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test. 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 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

Atlas Cross Sport A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Volkswagen 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 good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also 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. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Atlas Cross Sport.

Questions About 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport A/C Systems

  • How can I make my Atlas Cross Sport air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Atlas Cross Sport 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a 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 Atlas Cross Sport's A/C system.
  • Is my Atlas Cross Sport A/C powered by gas? Atlas Cross Sport 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 Atlas Cross Sport 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 Atlas Cross Sport creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Atlas Cross Sport’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Atlas Cross Sport is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
