Besides keeping your vehicle’s interior warm and comfortable for you and your passengers, your vehicle’s heater is important to the engine too. It’s difficult for gas to properly evaporate if the engine temperature is decreasing. If the heating system is not functioning, your vehicle’s fuel combustion system will not run efficiently. This is particularly true with respect to older vehicles with a carbureted engine. If your vehicle is newer, it’s possible to drive it without heat and not see a problem right away. However, over time you’re placing more strain upon the engine.
Does Your Vehicle Need Heater Repair?
Schedule a heater system repair at our shop if you are experiencing the following signs:
- A musty odor. If you detect a humid, musty smell in your vehicle’s cabin, it indicates that there’s a coolant leak somewhere in the system. Check under your car for signs of a spill.
- Steam coming from the engine. If smoke is coming from beneath your vehicle’s hood, it might be due to leaking coolant. Depending upon how much steam is coming out, you might be at risk of overheating the engine if you do not get service promptly.
- Windshield is foggy. Your defroster can usually clear up a foggy windshield. However, when the defroster is in need of more coolant, it won’t be able to do its job well.
- Lack of heat. This is the most obvious sign that your vehicle needs heater repair. This problem could be due to an engine problem or a hole within the heater core or a broken motor.
If you see any of these signs, it’s important to schedule service promptly before the problem gets worse.
