Inconsistent A/C Temperature in 2019 Nissan Cube: Suspected Refrigerant Compressor Issue

A/C System Not Engaging

Air conditioning blows warm air

Insufficient Cooling/Heating

Hey everyone, I'm having a bit of an issue with my 2019 Nissan Cube that's run 108,551km on gasoline. My A/C doesn't seem to cool or heat properly and, to top it all off, it blows out warm air when I need it cool. Do you think it could be a problem with the refrigerant compressor? I ask because I had a rough time with my mechanic last visit, and I honestly don't want a repeat. Anyone else having these issues, and if so, how did your mechanic handle it? Appreciate your input!

Hey there, Faced a similar issue with my 2016 Nissan Juke not so long ago. The issue was simply that the refrigerant was all used up, no major drama. It's pretty common for the refrigerant to run out after a certain mileage, if I remember correctly, my mechanic mentioned somewhere around that 100k mark. So, what needed to be done was a full A/C service that included a refrigerant recharge. It wasn't a compressor problem as initially suspected. They did some checks and tests to make sure no leaks were present and refilled the refrigerant. You gotta remember, if it's leaking somewhere, a top-up won't do any good till the leak's fixed. My advice, get your A/C checked, it might not be as serious a problem as you think. Just make sure they test it for leaks before they recharge it. Hope this helps!

Hey, Really appreciate your response. Glad to know it wasn't anything major with your Juke. Money's a bit tight right now, so can you help jog my memory here, what ballpark figure did they hit you with for that A/C service and refill? And has anything related popped up on your scanner since? Cheers!

Hey, Fortunately, I didn't have to shell out a single penny for the A/C service and the refill - I lucked out because it got covered under my service contract, you see! Kinda feels like winning a small lottery, right? Also, since my visit to the good ol' mechanic, all's well that ends well! Specifically regarding the refrigerant compressor issue you mentioned, chalk that one up as fixed. And guess what? No weird scanner readings linked to it post-service. So that's it! A cool and comfortable drive without hurting the wallet, well worth checking out for your Cube I'd say. I hope this calms your nerves a bit more, man. Stay cool!

Hey! That’s some luck you had, getting it all covered under your service contract, color me envious! Well, your experience's definitely put me at ease. It appears like the problem may not be as monumental as I initially anticipated. Thanks to your valuable insight, I'll be getting my Cube checked out soon. Fingers crossed it's as simple as a refrigerant refill! Thanks again for sharing your experience. Ride cool and smooth! Catch you on the flip side!
