Why is my air conditioner blowing warm air on the driver side and cold on the passenger side
See this steps and think with clearly and logically NOT feared. God bless you
Start with the compressor. Does it engage when you turn on the A/C?
If so, the compressor is working and the A/C system probably contains
enough refrigerant to make cold air, so the problem is inside the HVAC
unit. Replace the motor that controls the blend air door (this is a
difficult job and best left to a professional since it involves tearing
apart the HVAC unit -- about an 8 to 10 hour job!).
If the compressor does not engage when you turn on the A/C, see if it
will run by jumping the compressor clutch wire directly to the battery
(use a fused jumper wire). If the compressor works when you jump it,
and the A/C blows cold air, the system contains refrigerant and the
fault is likely a bad A/C compressor clutch relay or a bad clutch
cycling switch or pressure switch.
If the compressor does not engage when you jump it, the problem is a bad compressor clutch.
If the clutch engages but the compressor does not turn (the belt will
start to slip and squeal), the compressor is locked up and you need a
new compressor.
If the compressor clutch engages and turns the compressor, but the
A/C still does not blow cold air, the system is probably low on
refrigerant and needs to be recharged.
SOURCE: The air conditioner is blowing hot air on the driver's side only.
poss ac vent elec valve under dash bad
SOURCE: Changed batteries and climate control not working properly
The actuator has gone bad. They can be programed, and reset, but usaly they are bad, and that will only patch the problem for a while.

the passenger side electronic controller is sensing the passenger side temperature is cooler than it really is, which causes the controller to increase the hot water flow to warm up the passenger area...any time you replace a battery or loose your charge, the HVAC module will need to be reset...Try this...
Remove your hvac fuse for 10 sec - reinstall fuse.
Start engine "DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING FOR 3 MINUTES"
Recalibration of module will accure when power is lost (fuse pulled, battery changed or died)
If hvac reset did not work you have a trouble code - reset BCM
There are two ways to reset your body control module
Go to the GENERAL
Remove BOTH battery cables (for the sake of CAUTION remove air bag fuse and wait 5 MINUTES)
Hold both cables together for 1 minute - drains KAM (keep alive memory).
Put everything back together
Start the engine "DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING FOR 3 MINUTES"
If you have no broken parts - system not default (normal operation)
If that works it just saved you 600 dollars...dealer costs to repair.
Good Luck...please rate me a fixya.

Turn your AC off. Turn the car off Crank the car turn ac on drivers side to 60 passenger side to 90 press auto wait 1 minute turn AC off (very important) turn car off turn car back on switch driver's side 90 passenger 60 press auto wait one minute turn AC off( very important) turn car off turn car on AC 70 both sides press auto your ac should be blowing cold If not, you have an expensive problem

Check coolant level. Check for heat at the heater hose going from water pump to heater core at firewall. Check to see that cable is moving coolant control valve from the closed to open position. Low mileage so it shouldn't be plugged heater core.
Testimonial: "You were absolutely correct. Low coolant level. Put in some 50/50 and we're nice and toasty now, but need to find out why coolant was so low. Thanks."
