    My 2019 has a leak on the low side hose at the service port. Have a look at that line near brake master cylinder. Does the compressor start cycling?

    Bad airflow to the condenser behind the grill. Clean the bugs and crap out. Is it dented or rock damaged?

    My condenser caught a rock a few years back causing it to leak, and subsequently causing the AC not to work. I kept refilling the system every couple months instead of getting the condenser replaced...bad move. Smoked the compressor. I had to have both replaced which cost a couple grand.

    I always put a piece of 1/4" grid wire hardware cloth behind the grill of my cars and trucks. Keeps the condenser clear and dent free. Can a rock penetrate? Yes, but chances are far less.
