A/C wasn't cooling for a year. Determined evaporator coil was broken, which required complete removal and replacement of dashboard - many hours of labor. Had no choice but to wait until dashboard replacement program got the necessary part in. Waited two years and got the dashboard part in, so did the a/c work in conjunction with that. |
