Your truck or car's AC system is almost completely airtight, but your freon refrigerant is always slowly leaking out. Eventually, a car will lose enough freon so that its air conditioning system will no longer cool effectively. At Dixie Motors at 2013 E Victory Dr we are ready to recharge your AC to help you keep your car or truck's cabin temperature cool.

"Help My AC Only Blows Warm Air!"

New advancements in R134a freon systems means that freon in newer cars doesn't leak out as much as old R12 freon systems. The average new model economy car only leaks about 0.41 ounces of refrigerant per year. Come to Dixie Motors in Savannah when it's time to recharge your AC freon.

Dixie Motors's Fast 3 Step Process:
  • Vacuum out all the old refrigerant before refilling it.
  • Add new R134a refrigerant.
  • Pressurize your car's AC system and test for mico-leaks.
"Does Dixie Motors Have R12 Freon For My Classic Car?"

Unfortunately R12 freon is no longer available. If your car or truck was made before 1994 you must convert your entire AC system to the new R134a standard. This involves replacing dozens of seals and several AC auto parts. R134a is a more highly pressurized and much more efficient refrigerant pound for pound than R12. Most classic car AC compressors and condensers cannot withstand the intense pressure required and choose to add about 25% less freon to accommodate older systems. This means your AC may not cool as well as it used to. Converting your R12 system to R134a is a big job so stop by Dixie Motors today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 2013 E Victory Dr.

"Is Used Freon Ok?"

Many auto repair shops resell used AC refrigerant. The old freon is cleaned using a specialized recovery machine that removes contaminants. Used freon provided by Dixie Motors works just as well as new freon after it's cleaned. Accepting used freon is a great way to help minimize the impact freon has on the environment.

Freon gas becomes a liquid when pressurized inside your car's A/C system but returns to its gaseous state as it leaks out. Many drivers in Savannah are completely unaware that they are losing freon until the day when they turn on the car's AC and find only warm air blows out. Call 912-355-3568 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 2013 E Victory Dr and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

What our clients are saying about us

We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!

We were so happy THAT OUR CAR WAS FIXED SO QUICKLY (it had been necessary to extend our stay at the house we had rented, and additionally to procure a car from budget, all extra expenses). We picked up our car and drove to Elkin, NC, for a night with our sister-in-law; the next day we headed for Johnstown, PA, for Thanksgiving dinner with my wife's brother's family. It was truly a memorable Thanksgiving: great food, good conversation and a thankful atmosphere, all because of the wonderful people at Dixie Motors. So, my recommendation is for anyone travelling in the Savannah area, who needs an auto repair, to give the fair and caring people, and excellent mechanics, at Dixie Motors a chance to make your travel days bright and fruitful. And from my immediate Ohio family and two Georgia sons, here's a great big THANK YOU, DIXIE MOTORS!JERRY AND LIBBIE HATMAKERLANCASTER, OHIOP.S. We are back home and have had NO TROUBLE with our car since leaving Georgia! quotes-image
