Which outcome occurs when a refrigerant leak depletes charge in an automotive A/C system?

A)Compressor overheating and seizing occur
B)Evaporator coil experiences complete frosting
C)Expansion valve fully modulates open
D)Condenser efficiency dramatically improves

💡 Explanation

Compressor overheating occurs because the refrigerant carries lubricant. Vapour compression cooling ceases, and no cooling load to remove heat is observed, triggering bearing destruction and seizing; therefore, compressor failure is frequent rather than supercooling or efficiency increases.
