Named 10 cars with frequent air conditioning breakdowns
September 14, 2020American experts checked the cars for the reliability of air conditioners and selected 10 cars in which such an important equipment system fails most often.
The corresponding research was carried out by the organization Consumer Reports.
Of course, sooner or later in any car, the air conditioner may break down (most often this is caused by a freon leak, compressor damage or a defective condenser), but this rating includes cars that encounter this problem too early – some of them are repaired with a run of up to 32,000 km, despite the fact that on average the air conditioner fails after 160,000 km.
