2002 Trailblazer LTZ. During an initial drive in hot weather the AC will be fine and put out plenty of cold air but if the car is stopped and turned off for a few minutes then started again the only thing that keeps the AC cool is keeping the vehicle moving at 60+ MPH. Basically, if the engine didn't cool back down to ambient temp during the stop the drive afterwards will likely have this issue.
I've read elsewhere this is a fan clutch issue, with the fan not pushing enough outside air over the temp sensor to allow the AC compressor to turn on, but it was never clear exactly what the problem was and what exactly was required to fix it.
