Part Description
This OEM A/C air compressor was removed from a 2011 Hyundai Sonata equipped with the 2.4L engine (VIN C 8th digit). The compressor has been thoroughly inspected by our certified technicians and is currently on the shelf ready for immediate shipment. All mounting points and electrical connections are intact and in excellent working condition.
The A/C compressor is the heart of your vehicle’s air conditioning system, pressurizing refrigerant to enable cooling. Common reasons for replacement include internal seal failure, clutch bearing wear, electrical clutch problems, or compressor seizure due to contamination. When your A/C blows warm air or makes grinding noises when engaged, the compressor is often the culprit requiring replacement.
