Cigarette smoke

Asked by kdray Aug 12, 2017 at 01:30 PM about the 2007 Mercury Milan V6 Premier

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Just buy a used car where the previous owner was a smoker.  It seems the odor more noticeable when I turn on the AC. I used cat litter, white vinegar and orange skin peels to cover the smell, but it seems the odor is inside the car.  Any suggestion on how I can get rid of this odor.

1 Answer

There are services that claim they can clean AC ducts. Try calling mechanics that do AC service. Clean the upholstery and carpet while you are at it.
