Sierra 1500 SLT 5.3L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 44,000 miles

Hot New Jersey summer blowing warm air out of AC vents. Took to dealership stated truck needed new AC condenser and was not covered under warranty, past 36k miles.

I called GMC hotline after researching online this is a known manufacturer defect, bad weld on front of condenser drivers side top right face of condenser advised GMC hotline service rep know this.

Took 2-more days and they offered to split costs, I politely refused, left truck at dealer and waited 1-more day than GM decided to replace condenser no charge. Works fine after new condenser was installed
