Whether scheduling online or over the phone be sure and let us know what you're experiencing so we can provide fast and accurate service advice.
2. Diagnostics and Inspections
Drop off your vehicle and the shop will get to work with inspections and diagnostics using the same equipment as the manufacturers to determine issues and next steps.
3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
To get rid of foul odors in your car - try using dryer sheets in your vehicle's interior. Lay out a few sheets overnight on or near the source of the smell.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you figure out what is wrong with my car's AC?
We combine your description of the problem with a step-by-step inspection and testing process. Our ASE-certified technicians check pressures, electrical components, and airflow using manufacturer-quality equipment. Once we identify likely causes, we explain the findings and options before you approve any work.
Will you tell me if I just need AC repair instead of replacement?
Yes, we explain whether a focused repair or a more complete solution makes more sense based on what we find. We review the condition of key components, your vehicle’s age, and AC history, then outline options so you can choose what fits your goals and budget.
How long does car AC repair usually take at your shop?
Many AC inspections and straightforward repairs can be completed within the same day, although complex issues sometimes take longer. We let you know what to expect after diagnosis and keep you updated. While we work, you can wait in our lobby or use our complimentary shuttle service.
What kind of warranty do you offer on AC work?
We back our AC repairs with an industry-leading warranty that reflects our confidence in our workmanship and parts. Specific coverage details can vary by service, and we review them with you before you approve the job so you know how you are protected.
Can I wait at your shop while my AC is checked?
Yes, you are welcome to wait in our comfortable lobby while we inspect your AC, especially for shorter visits. If you prefer not to wait, we also offer a complimentary shuttle service so you can continue your day while we care for your vehicle.
