Journey SXT 3.6L V6

Since the vehicle was brand new, the air conditioning cools very poorly, as the compressor will not stay running. I had my mechanic check the system with gauges on the high and low side. You can see the system high-side pressure pulsating and slowly build up until it shuts down on overpressure, the pressure will then slowly drop down and the compressor will re-engage.

I have had the vehicle to multiple dealers who said there is nothing wrong, since the vehicle was under warranty. I'm sure there is debris from the initial assembly of the system clogging it somewhere, but the dealer wants thousands of dollars to rip the dashboard out to get at the evaporator coils.
