What is a reasonable life for a Evaporator and accumulator in Explorer. Took my in for a recharge and was presented with a $800 estimate for repair including 5 hours of labor to replace. Is this a design flaw. I love the truck but this type of repair makes me thing time to trade. Help ? Any suggestions
I believe they are trying to ripped you off. Air condiitions should lasts more than 10 years without much trouble. Your's a 1999 model. I would never go to a Ford dealer for such repair job.
I suggest go to a raidaitor and air conditioner place, I bet it's much cheaper and it's not what they say is the problem if the repair shop is honest. This is why consumers have to learned how to fix everything if possible or know the technology in order not to be ripped off. This is why mechancics and repair shops can make so much money, they do ripped people off I believe.
