cold, but warm when slow or stop Sign In

ford Freestar van 2007, 6 cylinders., 3.9 engine., 142 k miles.
just got it from a dealer days ago.
the ac works, get cold and is not that bad.
the problem is : whenever I stop at the street light for 20/30 seconds or so the ac start blowing warm / hot air and would repeat the same thing on and on ( cold - warm ) .
If the traffic is slow like bumper to bumper I will get warm air.
thanks for your advice/ help.

See if your cooling fan is working.

What are your low and high side pressures when it is blowing warm?

Question: "You got it just day's ago from a dealer." What if any was the warranty on it? I ask because if you mess with it at all could void possible warranty if covered and messed with,
