Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING I HEARD A SQUEALING NOISE COMING FROM MY A/C. TURNED FAN OFF AND SQUEALING STOPPED. TURNED FAN BACK ON AND SQUEALING STARTED AGAIN THEN SOMETHING FEEL OFF MY CAR AND THE A/C WOULD NOT BLOW COLD AIR. JUST GOT BACK FROM FIRESTONE AND THEY SAID THAT I NEED A NEW A/C CLUTCH AND COMPRESSOR AND IT WOULD COST $864.30. MY CAR IS NOT OLD ENOUGH AND DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH MILES FOR THE CLUTCH TO FAIL AND TO NEED A NEW COMPRESSOR. *AK
