If the problem is on the mechanical side, like low freon or a leak, then any competent shop should be able to check it out. The basics of the AC are standard. If the problem is in the ACC controls, then you need a specialist.

A lot of times you can find a $39 diagnostic special, where you get a pound of freon and a dye test for leaks, which is a good deal.
