Warm Rhode Island summers put a lot of strain on your vehicle’s cooling system. One frequent problem is refrigerant leaks, which cause the A/C to blow warm air. Leaks often hide around fittings or the compressor, and worsened by corrosion or worn seals . If unnoticed, they can damage the compressor—an expensive fix.

Another issue is a blocked condenser or cabin air filter, common in areas around Cranston and Pawtucket. Debris can stack up behind the grille or intake vents, limiting airflow and reducing cooling performance.

According to Edmunds, modern vehicle A/C systems can experience issues like insufficient cooling, compressor failure, clogged valves or filters, and refrigerant leaks—these are among the most common A/C problems across the board. They emphasize that even small issues, like a slow leak, can reduce airflow and efficiency significantly over time.*
