Automotive Tips from Sterling Tire & Auto: Air Conditioning Inspection
July 24, 2018
Most auto manufacturers recommend an interval for an air conditioning system inspection. The inspection uncovers leaks, worn hoses and assesses the condition of the other components.
Environmental laws in some around Sterling Heights require leaks to be repaired before refrigerant can be added. Also some parts manufacturers require other components to be replaced along with certain failed parts in order to maintain the new part warranty. This is because a given failure may be the result of another worn or damaged part that will, if not replaced, prematurely damage the new component.
Sterling Tire & Auto in Sterling Heights is fully equipped to restore your flow of cool air.
