Looking for a local shop in the BR/Prairieville/Gonzales area that is good with vehicle AC work.

Primary issue is, assuming, with one or more actuator that keeps me from being able to: adjust AC temp and change location of where the AC blows to. Can't change to defrost or just feet, etc. it just blows out the upper vents. The amount of cold air is enough to cause condensation around the vents as well as at the lower area by the floor/under the dash.

2009 Silverado if that helps.

K&M Automotive off Siegen fixed mine. Can’t recall what it cost but I was happy with it. They always do good work for reasonable prices.

Another vote for K&M. Hunted down a leak this summer in my ancient GM that I commute in, and it’ll about freeze me out now.

Went w/K&M and it worked out great. I'm sure any of the other places would have worked out, but just decided to go w/this one.

After they diagnosed everything, did some exploitation from one possibility to the next... it came down to a blown fuse and help from a corroded connection. I guess that's the fuse I didn't check, LOL.
