| - RUN, DO NOT WALK, AWAY FROM THIS SERVICE DRIVE!!! They are con men!!
They had a coupon for a $25 a/c check. Our 2001 T&C was blowing hot air, so we took it in. They called and said it had a leak in the condenser, and it would cost $1100. We said no. (The care is 10 years old already.) They then offered to give my wife a "discount" and do it for $900. We thought about it, then still said "no".
They had drained out the freon, so after this, the car blew out all hot air, instead of the sort-of warm air it was doing before. My wife called the service advisor to complain. They said that even though it was illegal for them to do so, they would re-charge the freon for us. They allegedly did that, but of course it did no good, so not sure if anything was actually done.
We took the car to AAMCO in Gilbert because they had a free a/c check, plus a $25 coupon on any service. If they confirmed the leaky condenser diagnosis, it would have been "bye bye" car. They put dye into the freon, and SAW NO EVIDENCE OF A CONDENSER LEAK!!! Further, they said there was worn out fan motor that is mounted to the condenser. They replaced that for $125, and there was ice cold air.
We wonder if Earnhardt even looked at the car!
