Thanks for the suggestion.

I did have it checked about a month ago so I discounted this as a problem area. However, my mechanic recommended we re-check this and we're going to this morning.

He told me on Wednesday that is what he first suspected and I thought the right side was blowing hot air until I checked it in the morning. It was blowing quite hot the first time I checked on Tuesday evening but it was 90 F outside
