A/C failure on other Ocean years
No other Ocean model year has enough reports of A/C failure for a sheet of its own. See every Ocean year.
What this problem usually is
Most A/C complaints start the same way: the fan still blows, but the air coming out of the vents is warm or only a little cool. Some owners get cold air that fades after a while, and others hear a noise from the compressor before it quits. It's rarely a safety problem on its own, which is also why it seldom gets a recall.
What got replaced
Few of these reports name the part that was replaced.
Recalls and investigations

When it happens
Too few of these reports state a mileage to give a range.
What owners wrote
“There was a mandate that an update be performed to address safety issues with braking. The update has been partially done which has not addressed the original issue and has created other safety issues (inability to see screen, no AC control, no rear camera, no blind spot, no emergency braking).”

“1) I am Experiencing vehicle issues after recall work/updates for the AC the vents are not working 2) Had to pay out-of-pocket costs beyond stated reimbursement amounts (breakdown below)Water Pump, it was a recall and I paid for it,”

“The main infotainment screen does not function. The car reboots itself every 5-6 minutes while driving. This temporarily disables all the seat sensors, signals or anything that requires electrical. The regenerative braking is also disabled. Furthermore, I can not control any Heat, AC, defrosters, which is extremely dangerous during the winter season.”
Filed Dec 2, 2024
“The AC vents are not working. They promised to fix them under warranty, but never did. The car gets extremely hot in the summer and becomes unsafe, especially for small children. Windows must be rolled down to bring in outside air. Not safe for small children riding in the car in infant seats.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 0 of 29 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
