Suggest looking into the owners manual to make sure this is not a normal function of the HVAC system. Any warning lights on or flashing when the engine is running?
I don't know when the last filter change The user manual doesn't mention these type of issues!
My opinion....from what I see from your photo....the HVAC System is set to Max AC. Most automatic AC Systems are computer controlled. In the MAX AC mode..the system is designed to recycle cabin air in order to provide the least amount of time to cool down the interior of the vehicle. Once the inside of the vehicle has cooled...and eventially gets to cold...the driver should move the temp knob OFF the max setting. When that happens...you should notice the recic. Lite goes off. Now the system is bringing in fresh air from outside the vehicle. Try it. The fact that the system is going in and out of recirc by it self.. is...I suspect...a normal function when the system computer sees the inside of the vehicle get to cold. What do you think?
It makes sense! I will try to monitor the coming couple of days. But I confirm that I m turning the AC off.
