2011 Camaro AC help please!!

Sup guys , I have been having all type of issue with my 2011 Chevy Camaro
Especially with the A/C so far , I took it to a shop he inspect check for online leak nothing , we added freon last for a few days then stop blowing cold.
-
Once I did notice a white air like smoke coming out of the AC vent before it stop working , that was only one time. ( one mechanic told me it could be a my evaporator Core could leak.) and to get through that my windshield window have to come out , and it’s labor intense .

With summer literally here living in south Florida I am cooked if I don’t do something lol.
Fr
This issue made inside of the car hotter then Ever
So today I got this message displaying
Not sure if it has anything to do with the AC system

You guys always give me great guidance
I hope for the same .

you need to check your cooling system and make sure its up to snuff.i believe the a/c will not function if coolant(radiator) temp goes over a certain level.id check radiator cap,temp on the DIC or even better use a temp gun to verify coolant temps when running before i did anything else. do you have a trusted local mechanic ?

If you saw what looked like white smoke coming out of the AC vent you most likely have a bad evaporator.

How long had you been driving for before you got the AC OFF message? Your temp gauge in your speedo cluster is below "C". That doesn't seem right for a high temp warning.

When ever that message come on .
The temp gauge does it, it it won’t go back to normal , I just put a new coolant Gauge in the car , it had none .

I’m just not sure what’s going on and it’s like 105 degrees outside I can’t survive this lol. They AC just doesn’t work

But will that cause me to get this message , and would that cause my temp gauge to fall below the C ?
