My son hasn't had this happen on his, but at least it's covered by your warranty. Were you looking for input different than, "Take it to the dealer and have them fix it?"

No, I was just hoping someone might have had the same issue that I could handle myself, such as a relay or fuse, etc. Taking to the dealer is a pain for me.

Just take it in and have the shop check it out. Could be as simple as someone forgot to top off the coolant.

Sad to see these kind of issues pop up on our cars.

I was thinking that too at lunch today... until I hit the exit ramp at 70 mph and completely forgave my car for everything.

Well it took a few days to sort it out but turns out a hose was not installed correctly at the factory (they claim). On the first day they added refrigerant with the UV dye and let it sit overnight. The next morning it was down 6 lbs and dye was everywhere so they couldn't pinpoint the leak. We left on vacation and when we came back they told me about the hose. Glad it was something simple at least.
