My car hesitates when the AC is on, why?
Yesterday while I was driving my car on the highway, I had the AC on and I noticed a slight hesitatation or lurching. When I turned off the AC, the problem went away. I was wondering what causes this, and if it's normal.
Thanks

It may have been the A/C compressor kicking in or out. Which is no problems unless it does it rather quickly--which indicates a low freon level.
