I experience the same thing with my car. With the a/c off and outside vents open, I expect the air to be similar to outside conditions, not HOT air. I just chalked it up as "normal" for this car. Am I wrong?

Normal.

350 was the same way. Nissan fails on insulation of heating/cooling dusting.

outside air circ is kind of silly in this car, the air is always too warm. Also, you cant put it on re-circulate without the A/C on!

Not a bad idea. I can't believe how many times I see a car going down the road in the middle of winter with their windows completely fogged up because they don't know to turn on the A/C or go to outside air.
Kentucky drivers FTL.

Thanks for all the replies. Well, it sounds like this is a normal condition. I have about 5000 miles on the car and it is just over a year old. I've started using it as a daily driver for about 5 months now. Glad to know I won't have to take it the dealer at least. Thanks again!
