gradual. With the pandemic, that vehicle isn't getting driven as much, and when it is, it's usually my wife taking my daughter to horseback riding (rough parking lot, so she prefers to have the bigger 4wd). Then we took a trip to Maine where we took the GMC because we needed the space, and the AC was blowing slightly coolish air at best.

AC was probably working before that trip, or I'm sure I would have heard about it after one of the times it was driven before.
