I’ve seen that one. On the way home, about 2hrs of continuous proper operation. That TSB I’m sure is a pricey repair. They have to take the dash out from what I understand.
Our 2019 MAX AC is acting funny, and I’m curious if anyone has run into something similar.
About an hour into a road trip, with the AC on and the fan set to high, the fan will suddenly drop to what feels like the low setting—even though it’s still set on high. At the same time, the air coming...
Our 2019 has the same issue…AC works fine but only for about 15mins, then blows ambient air and fan won’t blow hard even on high. Also, when the front AC does actually work, the rear AC has to be ON too, otherwise it blows ambient air.
Noticed the exact same issue on my wife 19’ MAX last week when I took it on a long drive. She never had the issue as she only drives short jaunts around town and it works fine, it’s only after about 15 mins where the issue comes up, Air is warmer and fan doesn’t blow hard even on high.

I checked it out and yep you were right on… There is oil buildup all over both valve covers. I took a video but couldn’t attach it so here’s a screenshot.

thanks for that! It can’t hurt to ask right
