How much do auto repair shops charge to add freon to your car?

Plenty!!! Freon (R12) is very expensive and is no longer in production. I suggest you have the system converted to R134a. The shop can recover the R12 and pay you for it. Make sure the leak is repaired before charging the system.Plenty!!! Freon (R12) is very expensive and is no longer in production. I suggest you have the system converted to R134a.
