Adding stop leak products to the A/C system is not a recommended or approved Scion repair process. During A/C service, moisture enters the A/C system, and can react with the previously added A/C stop leak, forming a gelatinous substance. The gel substance that forms can cause the A/C compressor to bind and or seize.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/MC-10142507-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/MC-10142507-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10142507","components":[{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null},{"id":"hvac","name":"Heating and air conditioning","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"SCION","model":"FR-S","year_from":2016,"year_to":2016,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"SCION","model":"IA","year_from":2016,"year_to":2016,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"SCION","model":"IM","year_from":2016,"year_to":2016,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"SCION","model":"TC","year_from":2016,"year_to":2016,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
