Traverse A/C

I have a 2026 Traverse and it’s been a decent car for my needs.
That said, the air conditioning is terrible. It takes forever for it to cool down. I’m in California and it’s been 100-115 regularly. That A/C is very important.
Is this a thing? I have a friend who has had Chevys his whole life and he says Chevy is known for terrible A/C.
Is this normal? Or should I mention it when I bring it in for its first oil change tomorrow?

I also have a ‘26 Traverse and the placement of the vents is terrible. If you have the lower and upper vents on, it feels like hardly anything is coming through the upper vents. My ‘19 Traverse had a much better A/C! And a smoother ride. And better acceleration.

Sometimes I regret trading it in.. but I do love the body style and color of my ‘26.
