Default A/c problems

I'm pretty new to the Corvette and have only had mine for a few months. I have noticed that when I'm driving and have the A/C on that sometimes it shuts down. I have both the controls on 60 and for some reason the air starts coming out just cool and not cold like it should. Has anyone else noticed this?? This is driving me crazy..

Make certain that your controls are set for internal recirculation, and not mix with outside air. If all controls are set correctly, run it back to the dealer, and ask them to check the freon charge which may be a little low.

Default leave it on auto

unless the system is low and freezing up it should not do that. Make sure the evaporator is draining out. The drain is over the passenger exhaust.

All settings are right and I would like to think that freon is ok because it is new. I guess it is possible. Thanks guys... I guess to dealer I go..
