The a/c compressor on my 2019 Tahoe with 60,000 miles no longer works. It will not blow cold air out and was not discovered until it was super hot outside. This should not be happening to a vehicle that I've had less than 5 years and with the average amount of miles on. Since Bumper to bumper warranty is now only 3years or 36,00…

The a/c compressor on my 2019 Tahoe with 60,000 miles no longer works. It will not blow cold air out and was not discovered until it was super hot outside. This should not be happening to a vehicle that I've had less than 5 years and with the average amount of miles on. Since Bumper to bumper warranty is now only 3years or 36,000 miles it is also out of warranty, leaving me to fix on my own dime. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone other than myself. There were no warning lamps or messages or symptoms prior.
