🚗 Is Your Car A/C Ready for Summer? Don’t Sweat It – Tips from Seaside’s Trusted Shop
Summer in Monterey County can be beautiful—but nothing spoils a sunny day like a car blowing warm air instead of cool A/C. If your vehicle’s air conditioning isn’t keeping up, it could be time for a professional A/C service.
At Wayside Garage, we help drivers stay comfortable and safe by diagnosing and fixing A/C problems before they turn into bigger (and hotter) issues.
🌬️ Why Is My Car A/C Blowing Warm Air?
Your car’s A/C system relies on refrigerant, electrical components, and airflow. If something’s off, you might notice:
Warm or humid air coming through the vents
Weak airflow even on high settings
Strange smells when the A/C runs
Loud noises when turning on the fan
Even newer vehicles (including hybrids and EVs) can have these problems—especially after a long winter or if your system hasn’t been serviced in a while.
🔧 What Happens During a Car A/C Inspection?
At Wayside Garage, our certified technicians perform a comprehensive A/C system check that includes:
Checking refrigerant levels
Inspecting the compressor, condenser, and blower motor
Testing cabin air temperature
Examining for leaks or worn hoses
Ensuring proper airflow and vent function
If needed, we’ll recommend a recharge, leak repair, or part replacement—with transparent pricing and honest advice every step of the way.
🧊 How Often Should You Service Your Car’s A/C?
Here’s what we recommend as part of our Maintenance Plan:
Every 12 months: Inspect A/C function and refrigerant
Every 24-36 months: Full system inspection and recharge if needed
Every oil change: Quick check of cabin air filter and fan performance
Proactive service saves you money by preventing compressor failures or system breakdowns.
