Far as a leak. Like everything today, it is government regulated. IF, it is leaking beyond limits they cannot add more coolant. I had read average life is/was 14 years in the villages. Reminder you use it all year cooling and heating. Gossip, perhaps? They don't make em like they used to. A tech told me it is down from 14 to 11. A replacement will cost like 8,000 plus.
Carrier, I've read,is no longer made in the US, it is made in Mexico. Trade wars? There was an article in Barrons,avail on line, that explains it well in plainspeak and they are not selling you something.
