I went to Spectrum for the first time this week to have the headlights replaced and had a great experience. The price was very reasonable, and their work was excellent and done in an efficient time period. Both JR and Michael are super nice guys and very professional. I’m so happy to have found Spectrum and will continue to use them as my mechanic going forward. I highly recommend Spectrum Car Care!

4 Common Warning Signs that You Need Cooling System Repair

By Spectrum Car Care • March 15, 2025
Your vehicle’s cooling system is responsible for regulating engine temperature and preventing overheating. If any part of the system fails, it can lead to costly engine damage. Recognizing the warning signs of a cooling system problem can help you address issues before they become serious. At Spectrum Car Care, our local mechanics provide expert cooling system repair in the greater Gilbert, AZ area. Here are four signs of cooling system trouble. Engine Overheating One of the most obvious signs of a cooling system problem is an overheating engine. If the temperature gauge on your dashboard rises into the red zone or you see steam coming from under the hood, your engine is running too hot. This could be due to low coolant levels, a failing thermostat, or a malfunctioning radiator. Ignoring an overheating engine can lead to severe damage, including a blown head gasket or warped cylinder heads. Low Coolant Levels Coolant is essential for maintaining the engine’s temperature. If you notice that your coolant levels are consistently low, there may be a leak somewhere in the system. Leaks can occur in the radiator, hoses, or water pump. Checking for puddles of coolant under your car can help alert you to a leak. Coolant Leaks A visible coolant leak is a clear indication that there is a problem with your cooling system. Coolant is typically bright green, orange, or pink (yours might be a different color) and may have a sweet smell. If you notice puddles forming under your vehicle, it could mean a damaged radiator or a worn-out hose. Addressing a coolant leak as soon as possible can help prevent overheating and engine damage. Steam or Smoke from the Engine Bay Seeing steam or smoke rising from under the hood is a strong sign that your cooling system is failing. Steam is often a result of coolant boiling over, while smoke could indicate more severe engine damage. If you notice this issue, it’s best to pull over safely and shut off the engine ASAP to help prevent damage.

Where to Find 1234YF Refrigerant Services in Gilbert, AZ

By Spectrum Car Care • February 25, 2025
If your car’s air conditioning isn’t keeping you cool like it should, it may be time to check your refrigerant. Many modern vehicles now use 1234YF refrigerant, a more environmentally friendly alternative to older refrigerants like R-134a. At Spectrum Car Care, we provide professional 1234YF refrigerant services in Gilbert to ensure your vehicle’s AC system is operating at peak performance. Here’s what you need to know. What Is 1234YF Refrigerant? 1234YF is the latest refrigerant used in vehicle air conditioning systems. Unlike its predecessor, R-134a, which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, 1234YF has a much lower global warming potential, making it a cleaner and more eco-friendly option. Because of its environmental benefits, most automakers have switched to 1234YF in newer vehicles, and many states now require its use in car AC systems. Why Is 1234YF Refrigerant Important? Your vehicle's air conditioning system relies on refrigerant to cool the air before it enters the cabin. Over time, refrigerant levels can drop due to leaks or normal wear and tear, reducing AC performance. If your AC isn’t blowing cold air, struggles to keep up in the heat, or has a musty smell, it may be time for a 1234YF recharge or leak inspection. Using the right refrigerant is critical for your car’s air conditioning system. Vehicles designed for 1234YF cannot safely use R-134a, and attempting to do so can cause damage and void warranties. That’s why it’s important to have a certified shop like Spectrum Car Care handle your AC service with the proper tools and expertise. Schedule 1234YF Refrigerant Service in Gilbert If your car’s AC isn’t keeping you comfortable, let the experts at Spectrum Car Care help. Our ASE-certified technicians use specialized equipment to safely handle 1234YF refrigerant, ensuring your air conditioning system is properly recharged and leak-free. We offer quick and reliable service so you can stay cool no matter how hot it gets outside. To schedule your 1234YF refrigerant service or other car air conditioner repair in Gilbert, give us a call at  480-535-4056  or visit our nearby car shop today. We look forward to keeping your car healthy and comfortable.
