Renegade Latitiude 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 14,000 miles

Our temps rose to 95 degrees here. I went to run my a/c and it was blowing hot air. I had an hour drive to work, so left it on hoping it would eventually cool. Got to work with hot air still blowing from the vents. A/C on high with recirculate button turned on also. Later I drove home and the air was just starting to get somewhat cool. I promptly took it to the dealer where they claim they ran several tests and everything checks out. They said they got my air to 54 degrees. When I got in it was running cold, and it had been an hour and a half in the shop. I was down a quarter of a tank of gas. I asked them if they ran it the whole hour and a half to reach that temp. They couldn't give me an answer. Obviously they did since the gas was used. The temps today are again in the 90s, and I had the same problem. Embarrassing to take people in my car in the heat, and all that comes out of my vents is hot air. They all say something is definitely wrong but dealer won't say anything. I am not a happy camper. A brand new vehicle and I am dying in the heat.
