Also, my moms car only has 82k miles.... Can yall think of any reasons it would go out so early?
It is an 11 year old car, but still.
not necessarily true BUT if u install a new compressor it is best to replace the drier and expansion valve for peace of mind, you dont want contaminants getting into your new compressor.

no specific reason it went out they just go out sometimes
