looking for a reliable repair shop

[millertime]

I am looking for a reliable repair shop in the Salem Oregon area. I've owned my first diesel, a 2007 2500 5.9 shortbed for two years now and finally needs a repair that I cannot do myself. My A/C conked out while going through Death Valley at 122 degrees. If anyone could guide me to a reputable repair shop I would greatly appreciate it.

source automotive in SE Portland is a good shop. www.sourceautomotive.biz

Check your system for charge first, meaning, is there refrigerant present. At 122* the pressures would be very high and could have popped your O rings at the refrigerant service ports.

Any update?

it seems to have pressure. the compressor is not activating. I haven't had much time to dig in as I've been out of town for a couple of weeks now. one shop says it's the compressor clutch, another says it's a relay that only Chrysler can reset
