I have a 2001 Maxima with about 75K miles. The AC recently stopped working. It blows air that I'd said is cooler than air temp, but on a hot day, it doesn't really cool off the car.

Are the odds decent that it's just going to be a recharge that fixes this or if a recharge is needed, typically, there's a leak too that needs to be fixed?

Still could be compressor or something real expensive too?

I really have no idea and it's not really something I know anything about, so I just want to make sure when I take it in, I can validate some of what the shop tells me.

Thanks in advance.
