• The cabin air filter cleans air entering the passenger compartment, improving comfort and blocking allergens, dust, and odors for occupants.
• Both filters are essential — the engine filter protects mechanical systems, while the cabin filter protects passengers; Park Place Motorcars Dallas inspects and replaces both with OEM parts.

What are signs of a bad air filter?

• Reduced acceleration or power, decreased fuel economy, unusual engine noises, or a strong odor in the cabin can indicate a clogged filter.
• The HVAC may blow weaker or produce persistent odors when the cabin filter is saturated; our techs provide a clear diagnosis and recommended next steps.
• We back work with documented inspections and warranty guidance; if your repair is warranty-covered it must be completed at a certified dealership like Park Place Motorcars Dallas.
