Air conditioner issues

tbently · Oct 3, 2018

recently I have noticed that the 2 center A/C vents don't come on with the 2 outer ones. This is intermittent. but happens daily. If I stop the car and restart it it works fine. Dealership has no idea why this is happening. Went to the dealer Hub in Houston and the service manager did fiddle with the A/C controls on the screen and it hasn't happened in 6 days now!! Any thoughts? 61K miles '15 Genesis 3.8

It actually is not an AC problem but a vent damper problem. I'm not sure exactly how they are controlled, but an actuator opens and closes them. You can manually manipulate them from the screen and he may have loosened up whatever was sticking it. Hopefully, it will continue to move as needed.
