Condensed story: Buy used car when cold, can't really tell if a/c really works, assume it does (yeah, dumbass me). 3 days later it's like
75, a/c does not work at all, nothing, hot air. Complain to dealer as it was advertised as A/C, they agree to 'fix' it. Take it to dealer, put in dye, come back 4 weeks later, they blame it on the schrader valve. So they replace the schrader valve, clean the coils and say "hey! We'll gladly pick up the bill for this one!" 2 weeks later a/c starts losing it's coldness again, it's a leaking evaporator. $700, they refuse to pick up the bill.It all seems fishy to me like they were covering up the real problem the first time. I never received an invoice from them for the work, but the guy claimed it was over $200 to replace the schrader valve. Now that I've researched a little that seems far fetched. But anyways.. could the schrader valve really take the AC down to nothing as it was when I bought it? After a month would it affect the cooling at all?
