Air conditioning is blowing hot and cold air, and it takes a long time for the vehicle to cool off.

Hello, I am Danny.

First, It would be great to verify if the A/C compressor is cycling with system on with engine running on MAX cool setting. Most systems now days have a cut-off switch that activates when the system is low on refrigerant. It does this to prevent the compressor from being damaged when system is low. Shops can add a UV dye to your system to check for leaks under UV light. If no leaks possible system need a recharge. Under hood decal shows A/C system capacity. Here is a link for you:

Also, here is your A/C system information.
