Introduction
This is a guide for 2012 Hyundai Tucson owners with cold A/C struggles. We have all been stuck inside a hot car on a summer day. Those days are no more! Recharging your A/C can be a life saver, and I hope this guide finds you well!
Risks: Engine can be hot if car was turned on in last 45 minutes. Wear safety goggles and gloves throughout duration of A/C recharge. Place the car in park and engage the parking brake before beginning.
