Frequently asked questions

Why is my car A/C blowing warm air?

The most common cause is low refrigerant due to a leak. Other causes include a faulty compressor, clogged condenser, or electrical issues.

How often should I recharge my A/C?

A properly sealed A/C system shouldn't need regular recharging. If you need frequent recharges, you likely have a leak.

Can I use a DIY A/C recharge kit?

We don't recommend it. Over- or under-charging can damage your system.

How do I know if my car needs new brakes?

Signs that your brakes may need replacement include squealing or grinding noises, a spongy brake pedal, vibrations when braking, or the brake warning light appearing on your dashboard.

How much does A/C repair cost?

Costs vary depending on the issue. We provide a written estimate before any work.
