Your vehicle's air conditioning system can make or break your comfort while driving. Sometimes when your AC system stops blowing cold air, it could be that it needs a recharge. But not every time!
That's where we Southwest Auto come in. We'll inspect your entire air conditioning system in your vehicle to see if it's having issues.
AC repair can be challenging because the problem could be other components like the condenser, compressor, or a controller issue. We can provide car AC recharge in Dallas, TX but only if you need it.

Your AC system loses refrigerant because of minute leaks. This leads to reduced cooling performance in your vehicle. A recharge restores the optimal level of R134a refrigerant to your vehicle. Here are the steps involved for this service:
"I had an excellent experience at Southwest Auto. It’s been very hard to find a mechanic to work on my old Saab, so I found Jon. He did a thorough diagnostic, emailed me the results, and had me approve the work. It took some time to source parts, but Jon Came through. My car not only made the 200+ mile ride home, it’s running great. Very thankful his shop was recommended."

"I highly recommend Southwest auto for your vehicle repair. Recently, they handled my transmission leak on a 3500 Mercedes Diesel Sprinter Van/Camper. They were efficient, fairly priced, and Cory at the front desk was very communicative during the repair process. They handled the warrantee coverage for me and got me back on the road quickly. I cannot say enough how pleased I was with the service they provided."

Most manufacturers recommend recharging your car's air conditioning (AC) system every one to two years. This schedule maintains optimal performance but sometimes you may need it sooner. It is not unusual to need ½ pound additional refrigerant every year on older vehicles.
If you notice low refrigerant, warm air blowing from the vents, or a significant decrease in cooling effectiveness, you may need to recharge it sooner.
No, R12 Freon is no longer produced. It has been replaced by R134a, a more efficient refrigerant. However, this does not mean that you can just add R12 refrigerant to any vehicle.
If your vehicle was manufactured before 1994 and you can't locate R12 Freon, you'll need to retrofit your air conditioning system to comply with the new standard.
Over time, refrigerants can gradually seep through the materials of the hoses and seals in the air conditioning system. Although this occurs slowly, it can result in lower refrigerant levels without any obvious indications of leakage from the AC system.
