• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Well I've had my Telluride about four months and it's back in the shop for the second time. First to replace faulty gaskets in the differential and now the A/C doesn't work. It will blow cold for 15 minutes and then blow hot. I was told it's most likely a faulty compressor.
 
Please keep the post until they solve your issue and let us know the details thanks for share and hope you get your ride SOONNNN

Update: Apparently the system was overfilled with freon. This caused the system to shut down and the compressor to freeze up. The system was "evaced" and refilled to the correct level. As of now it is cooling properly.

Second update: It's back in the shop and they don't know what the heck is wrong with the A/C.

Third update: I was told it has a bad compressor, which is what was suspected originally. Of course parts have to be ordered. So, faulty gaskets on the differential and a bad a/c compressor, but who's counting. I never had a problem with my KIA Borrego.
 
Two weeks later and my Telluride is still in the shop waiting on a compressor. The latest ETA is "sometime next week." I won't hold my breath if it's coming from S. Korea.
 
They should comp you for something. You've not had functioning AC for 2 weeks (and likely more)
