Your AC system is low on refrigerant. You need a refill, though that obviously means it leaked out somewhere.

this happened to me before I sold my GP. the system is low on refrigerant as jorgs_7 said, also you do have a leak somewhere and should take it to a dealer. mine ended up needing a line or too. hopefully its not the condensor or its gonna be some higher dollars to fix.

Wow. They would bend you over at the stealership for an AC service.

Any reason why it blows cold on passenger side and hot on driver side? Are they seperate for the climate control?

driver side actuator door is not working. We are going to attempt to get to it starting with removing the center console. I can see screws that may remove the bottom of the central duct but I cant get to them with console in.

When my heater did that, it turned out to be the ignition switch. The power for your climate control is through the ignition switch, and when the contacts within the switch build up carbon the climate control can start acting strange. You can replace it, take it apart and clean the contacts, or bypass it. There are walkthroughs for any of those solutions if you search for ignition switch.

I don't know why it blows cold on the passenger side and hot on the driver's side, but mine did the same thing until I added more R-134 to the system. It's nice and cold on both sides now. Guess I'll be trying to find where the leak is soon confused
