Newb here 2016 Premier going to give you the short and sweet of it not to bore you but I have a story to tell you of a dealer burn that your head would spin more later

Car in or out of climate blows ONLY COLD AIR DRIVERSIDE UNLESS IN HI! So it's either 90 or 0 temp on driverside passengerside works fine.

Is there a easy way to access the actuators? Anyone removed panels have a play buy play?

TIA

Step one is a full spectrum scan to see if any of the many modules are reporting an issue. HVAC code will not appear in the P codes but usually in the U and B codes.

Some many months later numerous trips to dealer still no fix! Dealer says its normal I guess they think I'm a idiot!
In auto in HI OR AS LOW AS SETTING TO 86 WORKS FINE!

If I drop tempature lower to 81 degrees say in Auto Mode it blows cold driverside warm air on passengerside . If I switch out of Auto Mode to VENTS it will flow warm air on driverside!

Basically it will not vary temperature below 86 degrees just goes cold driverside as well as rear seating!!
Can anyone help explain or tell me where the cabin tempature sensor for the driverside is?

Greatly appreciated.

There's no codes dealer supposedly has replaced actuators etc etc they're no help. Has been in shop atleast a dozen times under warranty mind you no fix. To say I'm aggravated is beyond imagination
