4 Engine Cooling System problem

Failure Date: 07/11/2003

I bought the 2001 Frontier brand new with only 10 or 20 miles on it. Since then I've had it in the shop 8 times for the a/c (thats right 8 times). Each time the service people assure me it's fixed this time. The a/c blows hotter than the heater does and thats ridiculous. When I go there the service manager ( pat burke ) treats me like a criminal instead of a customer. As of today the truck was fixed once and for all, according to them, but I've heard that 7 times before. Very concerned and tired!!! nv.
