Fran3682821 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I have an Air Conditioning hose on my 2007 Mack Granite that leaves the bottom of the compressor and attaches to another pipe on the firewall. It leaves the bottom of the compressor. Anyways its leaking and I called Mack for a new one and its $1500 canadian a hose about 3 feet long. Would someone else on here know what i should do are there shops around that can make a hose with the right fittings to fit my truck or am i stuck with mack at $1500.

kscarbel2 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Why don't you call Volvo Group's Mack brand "customer satisfaction" hotline for the U.S. and Canada at +1 (866) 298-6586 and voice your dissatisfaction over a quoted price of $1,500 for an air conditioning hose? $1500 for an AC hose is utterly absurd. Let us know what Volvo Group does for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
41chevy Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Any competent shop that makes hydraulic hose can use your hard ends and re-swage replacement section of the hose for probably on the high end, few hundred or less.

Fran3682821 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Hey I got it straightened out with Mack Ste Foy I needed the first section of hose that's about 3 feet long it's going to cost $600 they understood I needed the second length of pipe that it attaches too that leads to the condenser all together the cost of the 2 sections comes to $ 1500. Iam paying 600 which is enough for a 3 ft hose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
