The fault
How you spot it
The air conditioning system fails more and more often as the mileage rises: first it does not cool enough, later it blows lukewarm air, and finally it drops out completely.
Every Exeo is now more than ten years old, so the rubber seals of the system have perished too: the gas leaks past the seals.

How we know
Information, not an expert opinion
We write the descriptions, and we put the source next to them. A person reviews them before they go out. They are still information, not a technical expert opinion.
- A fault on the list does not mean the car you are looking at has it.
- A fault missing from the list does not mean the model is fault-free. Write-ups are made model by model. Not all of them are done.
- You decide whether to buy. This is no substitute for an inspection. That needs a workshop and a history check.
