Default Air Conditioning Not Working

I have a 2015 NX (non hybrid) and noticed this morning that the air conditioning is not working. When I press the AC button, the button light but the system blows hot air. I adjusted the passenger and driver's setting to the lowest possible temperature, and still no air conditioning, just hot air. As far as I can tell, the seat coolers work, but I will check again on tonight when I go home.
I have not checked the fuse yet so I'm not sure if it's that, or the compressor. The car only has 5,880 miles on it.
Anyone else have a similar problem?

First thing to try is to turn on AC, then open the hood to see if you can hear the compressor clutch cycles.

Dont try to fix it or figure it out yourself. It is in warranty, so take it to the dealer.

I've had my 2015 basic trim for a bit more over a year now and haven't had any issues with the A/C. My only "complain is I don't think the blower/fan feels kind of slow have to set it up almost to the max to get some decent air flow.

One time I was in slow traffic and turn the AC on, and of 3-5 min the AC was not even close to cold. And once I started moving past 30 mph it started to work like normal. And it was only 88 outside at the time.

My vents just got stuck in Foot/Windshield mode. No air out of the center vents, no matter what mode I select. I can hear some motors trying to move stuff around when I manually switch modes, but the air pattern remains the same. Driving to work this morning resulted in cold feet and hot head...

Anyway, the dealer was kind enough to offer to send a flatbed to pick my car up at the workplace, get it fixed and hopefully back to me before the end of day.

They sent the car back yesterday. All ok now.
Apparently, the "aircon system" needed to be "reset". Asked how do I do that in the future, they said they have to "plug in their own computer". wtf...
