AC not working 2016 yukon 48k miles

[Ksnell]

wife called ac not blowing cold on a 2016 slt is there anything known to look for and check? gonna put a set of gages on it tomorrow and check Freon but I don't feel confident that its the case, if the back is blowing cold and front is not what would cause that? I don't know if that's the case im just speculating

thanks

those trucks are known to have lots of failures on the pumps and cracks in the accumulators or lines., been some recalls
but otherwise first thing I would check is that belt is still on, if the belt came off there is a reason why

belts good after further research see quite a few folks with cracked condensors have to take the whole front of the vehicle off to get to it of course 1k+ job fml 46102 miles plum rediculous

I remember reading something this past summer about gm being out of stock on the condensers, was like a 2-3 month wait.... but someone figured out a diff part # from another gm vehicle would work or something to that effect. ..... not saying that's the case now but it was a massive ‘campaign’ on those things...

Google is your friend. Call 800-462-8782, special program 17336, AC warranty was extended to 5 years, 60,000 miles. It has been discussed on this forum and the truck forum. Covers 2015-2017. Good luck.

I brought the issue to the attention of the service department and it was covered under the special program and dealer had one in stock and fixed it Friday. Not sure it would of been covered if I hadn’t brought the issue to their attention and mentions that others were getting it covered up to 60k miles. Pays to research some times

Glad it was resolved but it sucks ass that it was an issue in the first place. And that you had to tell the service department what to do.

The dealers always play dumb to try to get out of paying, the one honest chevy dealer by me closed up about 7-8 years ago... wonder why

It's been so long since I've dealt with a dealer (since I always buy out of warranty) that I'm probably the least qualified to comment on situations where their involvement is required.

I know this is a touchy ‘subject’....buying new vs used, but for me, new car smell and putting the first 50k on a car makes me giddy....... plus, if something breaks.... it goes right back to dealer.....im not easy on cars.... new or used.
