How cold is your air?

How cold is your air?
After being serviced our a/c is about 20 degrees colder than the outside air.
My mother and law has a caravan and we just rode in a sedona and we were freezing with the air on full in both of them.
All three vans have rear air but my venture is not as cold. Are all the vans this way or does ours have a problem?
Thanks!

Jeff,

Funny - I was actually measuring the temperature of the air coming out of the center vent just the other day.

It was about 91 degrees outside and the vent air was about 52 degrees using outside air. When I pushed the "recirculate" button, it went down to about 46 in about 5 minutes.

This was using a RatShack thermometer with an external temperature "probe". I had the air coming out of the front vents only with the fan set one click below max (#4 where 5 is max).

One question: Are you getting the same temperature air from both the front and rear vents? This might help to isolate the issue.

PS. I only have front air (anyone in the back just has to wait ).

Take Care,
