Corrective action

Inspect all affected vehicles for remaining refrigerant level and compressor leaks. If the refrigerant level is at or below the specified threshold (50%) or if a leak is present, replace the compressor with a corrected part. If the refrigerant level is within specification, recharge the refrigerant.
