AC blower blew out at 47k miles?
My 2013 Ford Focus SE with 47,000 miles on it just had it's AC blow out and stop working. Is this a bad sign for the car and it's future? Any other ford owners have this problem?
Yes.
No. Stuff happens
I had a Chev that did this on a hot summer day at 24,000 miles while we were in the middle of nowhere. The fellow that fixed it said "Yeah, these go out all the time" I expected to do that every summer, but the fix lasted for 200,000 miles. Then the transmission stopped working.
It is not a sign of the whole car
Make sure to check the rear rubber brake lines that run to the rear brake calipers. The factory made them too short and they get stretched every time the vehicle goes up on a lift for an oil change. They fray where they attach to the metal brake lines just above the top of the rear tires. Take a flash light and you should be able to see them with out raising the vehicle. When they burst you have no brakes!
My uncle has one that the AC went out and the dealer quoted him a fortune to fix it. His is a 2012 or 2013.
- What would cause heat/ac blower motor on car to stop? Every so often the heat/ac motor on my car stops. I remove it (which is fairly easy) and put it back on. Then it works fine. I have checked the connections and fuses. They seem fine. The switch works too. Could it be a faulty motor? A new one costs $25-$50. Any ideas? 2002 Ford CV, V8, with climate control.
- I think I blew a fuse in my 2002 Taurus. I can't find the fuse and want to know if it sounds like i did? So when changing a Puddle Light in my 2002 Ford Taurus I hit the wire that connected the lighting and lighting case to my mirror. Something sparked and my interior lighting, glove box lighting, and mirror lighting is not working. Is this something as simple as a fuse?
- My 216/60R16 tire blew and my neighbor offered me 205/60R16, will they fit? My tire blew on my 02 ford taurus, and my neighbor came to take a look at it and said that he has 205/60R16's in storage and he will give me all 4 winter tires for 100$ if they will fit my car. Can they be fit onto my car? Please help as soon as possible he's waiting for an answer.
- I took my car throughout car wash and water filled up the left headlight and blew the bulbs! What caused this? My car is a 2006 Ford Freestyle and I've had it for a few years now. Do I have to take off the whole assembly or can I just take the headlight out and fix it?
