Auto Cool Atlanta

What is it these days with businesses thinking that you don't have other choices anymore? WE DO! I should have listened to my gut instinct with my initial call trying to schedule an appointment. Brad is who I encountered and he was very cynical and lacked any sign of professionalism. Kudzu has a word limit, but I left an extensive review on Yelp.com 5/14/14 with all the details. I would never do biz with this company and recommend that you steer clear of them as well.

I had 2 estimates to fix my auto air conditioner. Both over 1100.00. I saw the great reviews on Yelp and decided to give them a try. Wow! Great service, Friendly servicemen, and a 650.00 bill. They are the Best!!

Had a problem with the AC in my 2006 Chrysler Sebring drawing too much power from the engine. My regular repair shop was not able to fix it. Dropped the car off at 7 am, they called at 8 am to give me the estimate, and car was fixed before 3 pm. There is a bus stop for Cobb Community Transit near the shop. The number 20 bus will take you to Cumberland Mall, and you can connect to MARTA there.

My experience with this company was not good. I would not use them and warn others to beware. They really have a sales pitch when you speak to them. Can't get a straight answer either.

I had taken my van to two other repair shops over the past two years for an intermittent problem. One charged several hundred for an AC Tune-up, the other recommended a $2,000+ repair for a leak that involved ripping out the dash. These guys found a bad relay, confirmed there was no leak. Cost $150 and a couple hours of my time. Pays to go to a specialist.

I highly recommend this shop. I brought in my vehicle with mysterious odor problem coming from car vents. They were courteous, through, and same day service. I came back for a follow-up, related problem and they did not charge me. They back up their work - special thanks to Brad. Thanks, Tom D

Our high-mileage Subaru's a/c was working sporadically and we found this repair company on Kudzu. They not only figured out what a chain store (that, admittedly, mainly focused on tires) couldn't figure out after having us wait all day, but figured out a way to fix a part on the compressor rather than replacing the whole thing, which resulted in big savings for us! We would definitely return to them if we ever had another car a/c problem and recommend them to friends.

Like other reviewers, I too distrust auto repair shops and avoid them if at all possible by doing work myself. Lacking the tools to do A/C repair, however, I decided to take a chance on Auto Cool. I could not be more impressed and happy with their service. My 2000 Mazda had never had any A/C service but it turned out to simply need a recharge as no leaks were found. For about $100 we have ice-cold air in the car...better than new! Their shop was clean and well organized with some very high-end luxury cars being entrusted to this shop. I especially noted the number of older cars being worked on, and plan to take my 1991 Chevy truck back to them for conversion to R-134. These guys really know their A/C systems well and are honest and straightforward, only doing repairs that are necessary and NOT trying to pressure customers into unneeded repairs. Great job!

I am someone who has a general distrust of auto mechanics and do most of the work on my three cars myself. I had two problems with my '98 Tahoe - a refrigerant leak and a separate electrical problem - no fan switch high speed which I had already attempted to troubleshoot and gave up. The service team was great throughout the day with frequent phone calls updating me on what problems they were finding, how they found them, and the recommended repairs and costs. Unfortunately, the major repair was a compressor replacement ($$$) and given the age of this vehicle, they explained why it didn't make sense to put a remanufactured part on it. The electrical problem turned out to be difficult wiring issue - labor only. They also offered me the options of replacing a high pressure hose that had a very slight (barely detectable) leak and replacing the radiator which I was already aware had a slow coolant leak. I passed on both. These guys seemed to be professional and honest and communicated clearly with me. So far, driving around in a very hot June and July, the A/C has been working well for a 14+ year old vehicle. I doubt they are the cheapest, but did a great job at a fair price.

Weekend before my vacation, I thought I needed freon as AC had stopped blowing cold air in my 98 S10. I took it to Pep Boys, Saturday(my day off) they had my truck for 2 hours, explaining by state law they had to do a leak test and charge= $55.00. They told me needed new condenser, $1200 to fix. I said no thanks, went to Hot Cars-they didn't look at vehicle and said 700. While on vacation looked at Kudzu,gave great review for AutoCool,I called and found out open on Saturday, brought it in, was diagnosed as seals and hoses, fixed defroster problem-blowing through front vents all for less than 250.00.
