I have the same issue with my AC suddenly deciding to go hot on the drivers side for no reason.

They're the "AKs" of the automobile world.

Haven't had any issues with my tahoes,Burbans but did buy a new C6 Corvette come summer time turned on A/C blew hot air on passengers side cold on driver.Dealership said entire dash had to come out to repair told them **** you keep it.Paid 60k for a pos called Detroit raised HELL with them they gave me a new replacement Corvette.Just had a 2012 z71 blew transmission out of it at 33000 miles didn't take it back either got a newer 2014 POS Z71 hate it they don't build them like they use to!
I have a '13 Tundra that started shaking violently at 60mph with ~1500 miles on the ODO.
Since then it has had 3 alignments, 4 pressure balances, a new Rack and pinion assy. and we are on the second set of tires....
I blame the "everyone gets a trophy" crowd for the rampant mediocrity
Oh, and the Odometer just turned 9K
We have a Honda CRV with lift hatchback & all the push buttons. One of them releases the back window , which pops open a little bit, then you can lift it all the way open......We rarely use it, too, but have never had any problem with it. All the electric defrosters, rear wipers, & stuff still working great, too. Hated going Honda, but we've had so many constant, persistent, various & asunder problems with Jeep Cherokees (Chrysler) & GM products ,we decided to do something different. Meanwhile my old F-250 , HD 4X4 keeps on trucking......my last problem was starter wore out after almost 30 years & it cost me a whopping $27.00 ( with 'core' trade in) for a new one & about an hour's work!
chevy and GM's older models have awesome powertrain but the do-hickeys and interior stuff is crap. i had to fix my door drivers door hinge in my 97 s10.
but honestly what did you expect seeking help from an "american" company that had to rely on the government to use tax payer money to bail them out (and then move plants to mexico)
ford sucks these days to. get a freaking nissan or toyota

Yep Toyota has had more cars recalled than any car manufacturer in history "just saying"
As someone who has been driving Chevys since 1982. I am very happy with the service I have received from them.
I now own 3 Chevy trucks, an 03 Avalanche Z-71 (w/ 225,000 miles), a 99 Silverado Z-71 (w/ 328,000 miles) and an 02 2500HD 4x4 (w/221,000 miles). All are paid for and all have given me great service.
Of course, I don't nit-pick over every little thing. The gauge cluster went bad on the 03 (common problem) and GM offered extended coverage for this because it is a common problem. Mine was past the coverage offered, so I spent the $125 to have it repaired myself.
Not having a $700+ car payment means you have to make little repairs yourself. A starter here, an alternator there. Just replaced the AC compressor on the Avalanche ($400) doing the work myself. It's just the way it is. You want GM to fix everything on their dime, buy a new one and make the high monthly payment.

I was a hardcore GM Fan until I went shopping for a new truck in '13...
GM brought nothing to the table worth buying.
which is sad considering they had a preference and the issues with Dodge, Ford, and Toyota
But sorry for your issue.. remember in almost every Government situation, they are using the Cheapest BID they got.
