I am puzzled about what could be the problem with my air conditioner. It starts blowing out cold air and then starts blowing out hot air. Especially when the temperature is hot and humid outside. When it is cooler outside, it seems to work longer blowing cold air. Took it to the dealer and they said they cleaned the condenser and recharged the freon. That lasted about 2 days before problem re- occurred. Now it is just blowing out hot air.

If they recharged it, you may have a leak in the system that is keeping the compressor from staying engaged, or working properly.I would take it back and expalin that it is doing the same thing, and they need to check to see if it is low on charge, and ask if they performed a leak check when they did the work
