Default ES 350 2015 A/C Problem

A/C in my 2015 ES350 (25K miles) has failed 2 times.
1. Outside temp 92 Deg. I start the car and turn on the A/C. It is pumping hot air. I wait 5 min. It is still pumping hot air. I switch it off and start again. It pumps cold air.
2. Outside temp 94 Deg. I start the car and turn on the A/C. It is pumping hot air. I turn it off and on. No luck continued to pump hot air. Next morning out side temp 77 Deg. I start the A/C works fine.

I took it to the dealer. He says unless he can see the failure he cannot do any thing.
Any ideas/clues are appreciated.

Is the car in Econ mode? Does the problem happen in normal or sport mode? AC may not turn on too quickly in Econ mode.

Even though the car is in Econ mode the A/C does not come up for the entire trip.

Time to let the dealer sort it out.

Try driving it in normal or sport mode for a day or two. If it comes on then, at least you will have some important information for the dealer.
These cars do funny things in Econ mode

I drive my car in economy mode 95% to time and no problem at all with AC.

I would get it to the dealer pronto. Something is wrong.
