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 Starks Auto Service at 2829 Red Wolf Blvd 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 Starks Auto Service in Jonesboro when it's time to recharge your AC freon.

Starks Auto Service'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 Starks Auto Service 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 Starks Auto Service today and talk with our mechanics about getting the job done right. Visit us today at 2829 Red Wolf Blvd.

"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 Starks Auto Service 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 Jonesboro 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 870-203-9980 and ask any of our auto repair specialists about recharging your car's AC. Stop by our store at 2829 Red Wolf Blvd and we will show you the best AC recharging options for your car.

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

Imagine my frustration when the car I had just purchased from Carvana was making noises the same day that I received it. Then, having to call several numbers and speak with half a dozen Carvana and SilverRock representatives before being referred to Firestone, only to be told that they don't service Jaguars. After having to speak with several more representatives I was referred to Starks Auto Service. Honestly, I was geared up to be even more disappointed before I called, but upon speaking with Tony he put me at ease. He understood my frustration, was straight-forward, courteous, and easy to talk to. Diagnostics had to be run, and the water pump needed to be replaced. He took care of everything for me so promptly, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Tony is the man, and I can't sing his praises enough. I'm a new loyal customer, and will always recommend Starks to my family and friends. Thank you, Tony!!! quotes-image

Starks auto truly saved us when I was 39 weeks pregnant and needed a new radiater. We had brought our two kids in who are absolutely wild, but it didnt matter to them, they were friendly to us and took the effort to put on the channel that would help our kids feel welcome and us parents more welcome as well, it made sense to go back for standard maintenance and to check our (new purchase) old car to see if everything looked good. We plan on making the hour drive for any maintenance from here on out. Welcoming, warm environment and the signs all over about God being in control really makes you feel better.quotes-image
