Well, I'm back replying to my own post from the begining of the year. This is for all those searching the archives for AC problems. My problems didn't stop with the thermostat, and I'm getting a little annoyed. @ 60k my AC starts to fade after about 15min of use and starts blowing warm moist air after that. The dealer states it's probally just a sensor. Funny thing is they didn't check any of the freon levels during the 60k check-up nor my battery's charge as it died shortly before this... anyway.
They recharge the AC system. Its now 3 weeks later @ 62k and the problem is back again. I've read that it could be the sensor on the compressor and it should be bypassed, it could be an evaporator problem. The key will be is this covered under warranty since I've had the problem for the past 4 months, when I was still well under the warranty umbrella.

Good luck to all, I'll post a solution when I find one.
