Air conditioner does not stay cold no matter what speed, stopped, facing or not facing the sun, rush hour traffic or not rush hour, on freeway or surface streets. Air is cold and after a couple minutes becomes humid and cool, not cold. It displays similar symptoms as is if the condenser is icing over. Went into shop on 5/23 internal circuit failure and replaced the A/C clutch relay. Returned to shop for exact same issues on 5/29/14 for failure in new relay and was replaced with new A/C clutch relay. Returned to shop on 6/13 for same issue of not stating cold. Was told new powertain computer module would fix the issue. When I went to pickup car on 7/3/14, car did not start so unable to verify if A/C was fixed. Since no work was completed on A/C unit figure that since the module did not fix the starting issue the A/C would more then likely still fail.
