A/C Problem on Sonic Turbo Std LT

[RMIRANDA9]

Hi!!

I have been having problems with my A/C since I bought my Sonic 2 months ago. Let me explain:

3 weeks after I bought it, my Sonic LT Turbo 1.4 Std dint start the compressor of the A/C. I just was blowing natural air but no cool or cold air. I went to the dealer, they changed the Fuse Box from the engine area and the thermo switch.

The day I pick up my car, it was cooooling like never before... it went down to the 58 degrees when usually was at 80 degrees when the compressor was not working due to some electrical malfunctioning fuse box. I was really happy. This was the only day I have felt that the A/C from my car was working like it should.

The day after I pick up my car and as for today... the car is not cooling good enough. The lower temperature I have felt is 69 degrees of cooling and that is at full blast no matter if is day or night. it doesn't get lower that 69 degrees.

What It happens, the A/C goes on and off... every 10 seconds it blows cool air (not cold) and the normal air, then all over again.

Also another thing is that, sometimes the compressor dont start when I turn on the AC... i have to wait like 5 to 10 minutes, sometimes even 30 minutes to hear the compressor engage and start blowing some cool air... is this normal???

im soo disappointing with this car...


I mean, is this normal on this type of Car... I had a previous Hyundai Accent 2012 and this never happen... that car A/C was really Cold...

Is there a way to fix this!? Help

I wanted to say how is my car doing so far.

Since the last time here, i sent my 3 times to the dealer for problems with the AC. After the original post here, my car spend another week (4time) at the dealer. They said that they fixed the problem.

I dint past a week and my car started to have the same problems again, i could say even worse. Now the AC even work. I bought my car on July 25 2014 and as for today, is on the dealer in his 5 time service.

I dont know whats the policy on GM for a car replacement. I had to go to DACO in Puerto Rico (is a entity that protect customer for the lemon law) to have this case seen by a judge because the dealer doent want to change the car, just keep repairing it.

Guys, if you decide to buy any car, make sure it works great when you get it out of the dealer... mine gave me problems 1 minutes after i left with the car.
