We have a 2018 Tahoe with 55, 770 miles. The air conditioner stated blowing out hot air probably the condenser, etc. Also, the past 2 days the screen with mileage, etc. and the screen for the radio not coming on right away. Sometimes takes 15 minutes to come back on. Possible cause?

Air from the condenser doesn’t enter the passenger compartment.

Something is broken.

Either or both problems could be the result of problematic battery voltage. Ask your shop to do their standard battery/alternator system test.

here is a video on your A/C problem…

[Chevrolet 1500 / Tahoe - No A/C Leaking Condenser - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puuaTvUYEdE&t=937s)

additional info from this guy…

According to the folks at GM this problem only affects some 2015-2017 model year Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Yukon and Yukon XL vehicles. You can find this in the bulletin 17336 - 07.  
I am here to tell you though it affects WAYYYYY more vehicles than they have listed. However, in typical GM fashion they deny everything and won’t cover any vehicles not listed in the TSB under the extended warranty even though they use the exact part number

yep, and the new one will likely fail in a couple years as well. as far as I know, they have not improved the design any.
