asked by on June 09, 2016

One day I pulled in my parking lot and the a/c was on then out of no were the a/c and heat just suddenly stop working. So I checked the fuses and put a new blower motor on it. That didn't do anything so I took it to a local mechanic shop they had afree check a/c sign in yhr front so i went in. Once they did the free check up they said it would take a few more hour's to look at but they wantedto charge me so I said never mind. What should I do?
