2024 A/C Issues

[fkim119]

Did the change seem to fix the issues?

I honestly felt no change at all.

I’ve noticed the AC in general is weak. I came from a 2018 Platinum and the AC was seriously one of the best I’ve ever had in a vehicle. Not so with this Gen 3 Raptor (2023).

Same. I’m driving my 2017 for the first time since April and the AC in it is way better.

Also, my ‘24 has acted like it’s frozen up twice now. On the first time, it just wasn’t blowing hard. I thought it was a mixing door malfunction or a clogged filter. Filter was good, and in the ten minutes of dicking with it, it went back to normal. On the second time, I just turned off the AC for a minute and then turned it back on.

Update* I experienced the issue 10 minutes away for the dealership I have the appointment with. I Called ahead and asked if there was anything that could be done that day since the issue was currently happening. They said I could bring it by and have a service manager look at it and add it to my ticket as evidence. I arrived and met the service manager and a technician who immediately opened my hood and saw that my A/C condenser lines were frozen over. The service technician and manager had seen this before and knew a TSB had been issued. The tech got his laptop and updated the HVAC module in about 5 minutes. So far I have had no issues with my A/C and will keep y’all posted if it comes back. I haven’t noticed any change in the quality of the A/C besides maybe it not getting quite as cold.

I recently got a 24' Raptor and am already having issues with the A/C becoming unresponsive randomly after startup, with the blower motor not working and no air coming through the vents. I've seen multiple threads about others having similar problems with previous model years, but I was curious if anyone has had similar troubles on a 24. I have a service appointment scheduled in a few weeks and will keep the thread updated.

I recently purchased a 2024 Raptor as well. I'm having the same issue and will be bringing it in for service. did the dealership resolve your issue?

As stated by other people on this forum.

1. Start the truck.
2. Roll Down all windows
3. Max AC on for 15-20 min.
4. Swap over to Auto Fan level 3 coldest temperature.
5. Take down each auto Fan level if you get cold.

I also got ceramic tint for every window (including the windshield and moon roof), which greatly helps.

The above only helps people who feel the AC is underpowered. My side vents still have very low airflow compared to the middle.

Did you really? Certainly not a good 1st post…IF you did.

Let me lend a hand…visit this thread.

Since some members are already receiving their trucks, thinking we maybe get a sticky thread going to compile all owner pics?

Have the exact thing happening to me right now. Had the Recall software update done a couple of months ago, had no issues before. After the update, I've had this problem 2–3 times now.

I went to the dealer today with an AC problem, not blowing cold/not blowing. My dealer said all the 2024 models have faulty compressors. So if you haven't had the issue get ready. Lucky they just got off of back order.

All the 2024 models do not have “faulty compressors”

Stop making claims based on 3rd party “information”.

And how would YOUR dealer know or come to know this?
