9/20017 zI took my vehicle to the dealership because the AC was not working. The mechanic said "AC compressor was burnt up". I never used my AC until recently, only to find it is still not working. I took it back today to the dealership, now they are telling me there is a leak in the compressor outlet line.
I asked if this was checked last year, they said yes but cannot offer me a diagnostic history which shows a pass/fail or even a visual inspection note of leaks not noticed. I did request pictures of the leak and awaiting for them to be sent.
Should this have been seen last year? I want to make sure I'm not being taken advantage of because I'm paying a deductible.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
