usually when a newer vehicle has this problem it is because of the a/c compressor seal has leaked out the R134 refrigerent....

this should be checked out and if the seal was the leak ,,,it is usually because GM does not install enough refrigerent oil...adding 4 oz with a new charge of R134 should work for a long time.

all my vehicles had this occur when new,,,with the added oil still not leaking refrigerent...

you could be unlucky and have a hole on your condenser , as well...

Re: Air Conditioning will not come on

Your system has a trouble code set- have the code read and reset and fix it-- probably low on refrigerant
