Genuine OEM Cabin Air Filters Available at Great Falls Honda
Your cabin air filter is probably one of the many components in your Honda that you don't really think about, even though it plays an important part in not only the health of your vehicle but your health as well. Your cabin air filter cleans the air that enters your cabin through the vents, trapping pollutants, pollen, dust, and allergens, as well as providing fresher, healthier air. The cabin air filter also helps your heating and A/C unit from being clogged with debris. At Great Falls Honda in Great Falls, MT, just a 90-minute drive from Helena, we offer cabin air filter replacements in our parts department. If you're a DIY kind of driver, you can purchase your replacement with us, or if you prefer our technicians to do the work, we're more than happy to.

The experts recommend a cabin air filter replacement every 15,000-30,000 miles or every 1-3 years. If you live in or travel through an area that's extra dusty or polluted, you'll need to replace it sooner. There are signs that will alert you that it's time to replace your filter, including:
- Poor Air Flow: Air flow will be weak, even when turned on high.
- Musty Odors: Unpleasant odors linger when you turn your HVAC system on, leaving your cabin smelling moldy, earthy, and damp.
- Foggy Windows: During cold weather, your windows will fog up quickly and defrost more slowly.
- Increased Dust: You'll notice more dust piling up, even if you clean your vehicle regularly.
- HVAC Noises: Odd noises will come from the fan/blower, including whistling.
- Allergy Issues: You may notice your allergies acting up more while driving, including itchy eyes or sneezing.
You can drive for a few days on a cabin air filter that needs replacing, but it's not recommended. Failure to take care of the issue can lead to blower motor failure, your HVAC system becoming damaged, and it can also lead to health issues for you or your passengers. As soon as you notice any of these symptoms, contact our experts at Great Falls Honda and get on our books for a cabin air filter replacement.
