| For the past 3 years i have had to have the airconditioner recharged with freon. our mechanic can not find the leak and believes it to be in the evaporater which is a very expensive and time consuming job to get at. i think it should be coated with a corrosive resistant material at the factory. the dealer here in our town says he has a whole boxfull of defective evaporators, which leads me to believe it should be recalled or the warranty extended. *ak | |||
