But weird because the car is only a year old and haven’t used the AC much

Sounds like a dealer trip is in your future

Mines happens at random, but on auto and low temp it will get cold. Ac and low temp not cold. Idk dealer claimed it was fine, I wanna slap em, problem is intermittent.

There were some posts a year or so ago about issues with the blend door on the a/c system in these cars. Sounds like quite a few have had similar issues.

Took it to the dealer today, they said the system was low so they recharged it and have to take it back in a few days to see if it’s leaking. I’ll post a update when I can

I'm having a similar issue. Just started blowing warm air with AC on. I found that the compressor clutch doesn't appear to be coming on in my case either. AC clutch fuse looks good (though I haven't tested the relay), cooling fan turns on, and I can hear the blend door(s) inside appear to be moving when going from 'hot' to 'cold'. Mine could be low refrigerant, but I'm thinking several other things could be causing these similar symptoms as well.

Keep us posted if yours remains fixed or if a leak is found (in your case there must be a leak, right?)

Unfortunately, my 3/36 bumper to bumper warranty expired in March and I only have 12k miles on the car!

So I took mine to the dealer and it was leaking right around that top cap on the AC tube so they replaced it all under warranty and recharged the system. Prior they recharged and it worked again fine it was a very small leak in the weld area. Have the dealer see if you’re low on the Freon because if it’s low it won’t kick the AC clutch on to save burning out the compressor, if it’s a slow leak you might just have to recharge once a year or see how much the parts are.

The tech should have pulled a vacuum on the system. If it loses vacuum they would know there is a leak. If not then they refill it. Good luck, it shouldn't be low after one year.
