Default AC problem!! Hot Air on passenger side, Cold air on drivers side

My AC system is working but my car is continuing to blow very cold air out of the driver side and hot air out of passenger side....
I have searched and searched and searched thru CL and I can not seem to find the answer to this problem. There are post about it, but no one ever comes up with the replacement part or maintanence needed. In one post there was something about a servo..... Can someone please help!!! Any suggestions?????

if you have dual climate controls and the passenger side servo servo could be bad.

Took my car to the dealer today for the same prooblem. They told me I have a leak and it is more than likely the evaporator.

first you need to find an honest mechanic who works with Toyota and Lexus, had the same problem with my 2011. It was the servo, you must get the whole part with the two gears snd motor built in. Do not go to dealership they will rip you off. They will claim that the whole dash board must cone out. That part has to go in precise with those gears meshing a certain way. It's not an easy R & R. I use Longo Lexus must be OEM no aftermarket. Call Longo, Gabriel will answer double check part on Longo Lexus.com i pray you find an honest mechanic. Part was around $300. I paid him $300. Dealer wanted 1500. He must know how to remove parts and plastic carefully, it can be done. Not by DIY. Watch videos. My prayers.

The likely cause is low freon charge due to a leak in the system. Go to A/C repair shop and ask them to check the system for leaks. They have a vacuum machine that can show this in a few hours of testing. If a leak is detected, then it needs to be found - condenser, hoses, pump, o-rings, evaporator.
