AC Service FAQs

Quick answers to common questions about your car's air conditioning.

Q: How often should I get my AC checked?
A: Having it checked once a year—preferably in the spring—helps catch minor issues before summer starts.

Q: Why is my AC blowing warm air?
A: It is usually due to a refrigerant leak, a worn compressor clutch, or a dirty cabin air filter.

Q: How long does an AC recharge take?
A: A standard recharge and leak check generally takes about 45 to 60 minutes.

Q: Is it safe to drive with low refrigerant?
A: Running the system low on refrigerant can damage the compressor since refrigerant also carries oil to lubricate it.

A: Yes, we only use OEM Subaru parts designed specifically for your model.
