2016 Tucson A/C Issue

[Dizzy28]

Has anyone ever experienced a situation where the A/C only comes on when you press the gas pedal. It was never like that before but in November I realized the A/C only comes on once I drive off. The A/C still functions but does it indicate a bigger problem?

This would actually be the 3rd A/C related problem for me having had to fix the thermostop after 1 year (warranty) and I replaced the evaporator after 3.5 years (non-warranty, out of my pocket)

Sounds like clutch related.
When you return to a stand still, does the AC work?

Yip it continues working.
Only on the initial switch on does it require me to depress the gas pedal. Thereafter the A/C remains on.
