3 Air Conditioner problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2018

Every time I start my car and turn on the air conditioner it smells like sulfur in the cabin of the car. It is so scary to think that carbon monoxide might be sleeping in the car and be life threatening to my self and my kids and wife. The reason I bought the this car is to be safe, not to potentially be killed! I'm so disappointed and wish I knew this problem before I became stuck with this disaster.
