Real Colorado Springs Customer Experiences
"We received tremendous service from Action Automotive when we brought our car in for air conditioning and air circulation system repair. Killian was a pleasure to work with - very courteous, knowledgeable, and professional, and kept us well informed on the results of the thorough troubleshooting and diagnostics that were conducted on our car. When a needed replacement component was not available (we have a 25-yr old car), Griffin was able to repair the original faulty component with other parts on hand, saving us a ton of money in the process. We could not be more pleased with the service and support they provided to us, all at a very reasonable and competitive cost."
David Niedringhaus
"I had an excellent experience at Action Automotive! Griffin, Sean, and Killian provided outstanding service. Griffin went above and beyond by talking to me over the phone ahead of the appointment to give a tentative quote and try to diagnose the issue for free. When I arrived, the team showed me exactly what needed immediate attention and what could wait, all while being transparent about pricing. They also allowed me to watch them work in the shop, which I had never experienced before. Honest, hardworking, and reliable—highly recommend!"

I feel like they really do a lot in their troubleshooting and diagnostic phase, so when they make the final decision with the plan for repair, it's with lots of time and information at hand. That way the customer isn't paying for extra services. I trust them to take excellent care of my truck, every time!"

Frequently Asked Questions About Car AC Repair
How often should I have my car's AC system serviced?
We recommend having your vehicle's air conditioning system inspected annually, preferably before the summer months. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues before they become major problems and ensures optimal cooling performance when you need it most.
Why is my car's AC blowing warm air?
There are several possible causes for an AC system blowing warm air, including low refrigerant levels, a faulty compressor, electrical problems, or a clogged expansion valve. Our diagnostic process will determine the exact cause so we can recommend the appropriate repair.
How long does a car AC repair typically take?
The time required for AC repair varies depending on the specific issue. Simple refrigerant recharges can often be completed in 1-2 hours, while more complex repairs like compressor replacement might take 3-4 hours. We'll provide you with an estimated completion time when you bring in your vehicle.
How long does a cHow much does car AC repair cost in Colorado Springs?ar AC repair typically take?
The cost of AC repair depends on your vehicle's make, model, and the specific problem. Simple repairs like recharging refrigerant typically range from $100-$200, while more complex issues like compressor replacement may cost $500-$1,000. We always provide transparent pricing before beginning any work.
Can I drive my car if the AC isn't working?
While a non-functioning AC won't damage your engine or prevent the car from operating, it can make driving uncomfortable and potentially unsafe in hot weather. Excessive heat in the cabin can lead to driver fatigue and reduced concentration, so we recommend addressing AC issues promptly.
Will my car AC need more refrigerant if it's not cooling properly?
Low refrigerant is a common cause of poor cooling, but it's important to note that refrigerant doesn't get "used up" like fuel. If your system is low on refrigerant, it indicates a leak that should be repaired before recharging. Our technicians will locate and fix any leaks before adding the proper amount of refrigerant.
How can I maintain my car's AC system between professional services?
Run your AC system at least once a week for about 10 minutes (even in winter) to maintain proper lubrication of components. Keep the cabin air filter clean, and if you notice any changes in cooling performance or unusual noises, schedule a diagnostic appointment promptly.
