Some Mercury Monterey owners report experiencing issues with their driver side vents blowing hot air even when the A/C is set to 60 degrees. This problem may stem from a faulty blend door actuator, which controls the mix of hot and cold air, leading to improper temperature regulation. Additionally, low refrigerant levels in the A/C system can hinder cooling, resulting in hot air being emitted from the vents. A malfunctioning AC compressor may also disrupt refrigerant circulation, contributing to this issue. Furthermore, temperature actuator failures can cause one blend door to become stuck, causing a disparity in air temperatures between the driver and passenger sides. To resolve these issues, it is essential for owners to seek professional assistance for accurate diagnosis and repair, ensuring the A/C system functions properly for comfortable driving conditions.
