Red face 2011 Ranger A/C Problem

I own a 2011 Ranger from new and am having a problem with the A/C system. When I start the car, it takes 30-45 seconds for the a/c to start cooling. Its not really cool until I'm driving for sever minutes. In addition, when I place the controls from MAX A/C to A/C it starts dumping out hot air (like the heater is on). When I get several miles down the road its very cold in the truck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Looks like Rangers have the typical Ford blend door problem too. Might also help to have the system charge checked.

And, is your system electronically controlled (buttons) or does it use the ****? Don't know much about 2011 Rangers. Good luck.
