At other times it would be a freezer.
I had it checked a few times at the dealer but they say there is nothing wrong with it. I think it has to do with the way the A/C is designed, which is stupid for a premium SUV.

What is the humidity when it "blocks"?
If you have very high humidity and temps, and your AC setting is just right, the water condensed out of the air will start to freeze on the coils - stopping cooling and air flow. We have the high temps but low humidity - AC performs very well. Phoenix has high temps and low humidity as do we - but some failures reported there. Texas at 98/85 is miserable - strong AC performance reported there.
