CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Cabin gets VERY hot @ highway speeds. Climate control off

2017 Camaro 1LT
Currently 5,000 Miles
When I noticed the issue? Less than 1,000 miles on odometer

I don't know if this is an "issue" or the nature of the car but here is what is happening...

If I am on the highway doing anything in excess of 65 MPH, regardless of how cold or hot it may be outside in about 20 minutes or more of doing these speeds, the vents begin blowing VERY hot air, as if the thermostat was set at 80 degrees and will NOT stop blowing this air even with the system completely powered OFF. I have adjusted the temperature dial to the lowest setting (below 61) and even when its LITERALLY (not exaggerating) 15 degrees Fahrenheit or colder outside, it is extremely HOT inside my care to the point that I have to take jacket off to bare. When I get off the highway, the issue disappears and it becomes necessary to use the climate controls to maintain the heat in the car.

The reason this is an issue is because if I were to take the car out in the summer and its already this hot in the interior in below freezing temperatures, lord knows whats in store for me in the summer...

Does anyone else experience this issue or do I need to take my car in for service?
