The Perfect Storm of Auto Repair

A simple A/C complaint on a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee quickly turns into a lesson on why repair estimates are only educated guesses. Ron explains how one failed component can uncover several more—and why proper diagnostics always come before replacing parts.

Also this week, Ron helps a listener solve a persistent EVAP system fault on a Kia Soul, explains why testing beats guessing every time, and answers questions about suspension noises and airbag warning lights.

Real diagnostics. Real repairs. Car Advice, Done Right.
