A/C performance was dropping. Noticed oily florescent green residue on both bottom corners of condenser. Condenser had failed. Dealer replaced and repaired. Fairly straight forward 3.5 hours labor plus parts. The kicker is, this new 1234YF refrigerant is very expensive. For the 40oz charge the refrigerant alone was $600. I have no idea why the condenser would have failed on both bottom corners so soon.
