Has anyone else had issues with their AC? Seems like it takes 29 min or so for my bronco yo start blowing cold air. However if i remote start it doesn’t take but a moment or two and it blows cold. I’m so confused.

No - I was actually thinking recently "Wow, this AC is one of the best I've ever had in a vehicle!" It blows nice and cold!

Passengers in the back seat may feel otherwise :ROFLMAO:

I'd take it to your dealership for an investigation, it will still be under Warranty. We had an issue with our AC and after diagnosis they found an in-cabin sensor had wiggled slightly unplugged. They ensured it was reconnected, reset the codes, all good now.

I don’t use it much, as I typically have windows down and soft top windows removed. But it’s worked great when I’ve used it over the past year.

Mine works great. It starts blowing cold air about a minute after I turn it on with the outside temps in the low to mid 90's.

Ours works well and does not take long at all. Heck we run it even with the top down and windows/ doors off lol

Mike is the best ac I’ve ever had in a vehicle. It’s takes maybe a minute to get up to full speed and cold, but then is the coldest ac I’ve had. It’s been holding up great against the 100+ days we’ve had here lately. We actually hit 108 with 112 heat index the other day.
I would definitely take it to service.

It gets cold fast. Only problem is the lack of rear vents. Passenger in the back are hot and I’m freezing my balls off in the front with the stupid thing on full blast.

I have never had a Ford, any Ford, with a bad or weak A/C (unless something was broken)

That would be a most serious warranty item for me.

My A/C is Frosty! impressively so. You need to get yours checked out. Sounds like it needs attention.

Agree with everyone else here. My AC is super strong. I run it even when I have the top down so I don't melt at stoplights. The GA summer is brutal.

Since yours blows cold when doing remote start I would definitely look into a sensor or something being messed up. Let the dealer figure this mess out.

So update on my issue. Took the vehicle in and had them look at it. Turns out the high pressure switch went bad for some reason. So they replaced it and was able to get vehicle back in same day.

Mine doesn't work so I guess I'd better get it scheduled. I'm so afraid of something major and they need to keep the vehicle, but many in here seem to have simple fixes so I'm feeling better about it. I don't have any codes or anything, it simply doesn't blow cold at all.

Yours could be something else like out of frion. Could also have a leak in one of the lines as well. Reason I am saying this is I had cold air it just took forever to get there along with once it came on it would cut in and out.
