Consumer Description

THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM CYCLES OFF FOR ABOUT 30-40 SECONDS DURING NORMAL OPERATION FOR NO APPARENT REASON. GM HAD A RECALL ON IT WHERE THEY REPLACED SOME PARTS. EVEN AFTER THE RECALL, THE PROBLEM PERSISTED AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP (AUTO NATION, GREENACRES, FL) THAT GM DESIGNERS TOLD THEM THAT THE A/C WAS DESIGNED TO WORK THAT WAY AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD "FIX." SO I'M FORCED TO LIVE WITH A POORLY PERFORMING A/C SYSTEM IN A BRAND NEW 2013 VEHICLE. REALLY??? *TR
