How does everyone's air conditioner work?
Mine sorta seems bad. I took it into the dealer, and they said there was a leak. They fixed it, and it seems better, but it still sucks.
It sorta cycles on and off seems like. When it gets cold, its nice, but that only last 10-20 seconds. Then it seems to warm up a little and cycle back and forth. Does anyone else noticed this? When its cold, it blows about 42-45 degrees. When it warms up, its about 50 - 55. Then it cycles back on and blows colder.
What do you guys think?

1st time - driving home from dealer testing all the buttons
2nd time - 105* day in GA on the way to a nice dinner
3rd time - summer day in a tux for a wedding
4th time - out of town and nowhere to put the doors.
thats it.. other wise, its doors off!

Mine worked pretty good when I was down in Vegas last year. If it can keep me comfortable in 120+ heat (Phoenix guys know what I'm talking about too) then I'm happy with it.
Now...I prolly won't ever use it

My AC blows (no pun intended) .... and not in a good way. If I ever go to the dealer for anything I will have it checked. Right now it's barely adequate on full blast. It was always like that and I just assumed it was another Jeep thing. Now that I know that other people have great AC I will definitely have to get it checked.
The heater on the other hand is an entirely different story. It's like a blast furnace.

Mine usually works well. However, today I was under the hood inspecting stuff and found that one of the pressure lines that go into the compressor was leaking around the stud that secures it. I tried to tighten it a little a of course that just made it worse to the point that all the coolant has leaked out
. I am guessing that it there is an o-ring or something that has gone bad. Luckily it is still under warranty and I will be taking it in on wednesday. I will let you know what I find out. Anyway some of you guys that have had crappy A/C might have a slow leak and thus the poor performance.
