An accumulator dehydrator, for use in an automotive air-conditioning system, includes an inlet, an outlet tube located below the inlet, a deflector for preventing liquid refrigerant fluid from entering an inlet end of the outlet tube located just below the deflector and a deflector assembly for connecting the deflector to the outlet tube of the accumulator. The assembly includes a thermoplastic bushing connected to a passage in the deflector and having the outlet tube received therein, the bushing creating a sufficient interference fit between the deflector and the outlet tube to prevent the deflector from moving during operation. In an alternate embodiment, the bushing includes an extended skirt having a diameter coinciding with an inner diameter of the deflector, the extended skirt preventing liquid refrigerant fluid from wrapping around the lip of the deflector and entering the inlet end of the outlet tube.
