Default Driver side A/C hot, passenger side cold ??

Air on the driver side is blowing out hot, and on the passenger side blowing out cold. Does anyone know what could cause this?

ETA: It's a 2007

Usually due to low refrigerant.

There's a few similar threads on this forum.

i'll have to take objection to that redbull, may be a blend door related problem. need to pull codes out of the climate control unit and report back.

Here is a thread regarding only the passenger side being cold due to low refrigerant:

However, like Dr. D. stated, can be a blend door problem. My guess would be low refrigerant.

Ok this is strange. Took it to the mechanic and he started turning the passenger climate control **** all the way down to "Lo"... after which the DRIVER side air got down to the correct temperature when it was also turned down to Lo. Now taken off of dual mode, it's blowing out the same temp on both sides

Also... it's interesting to note that the passenger side **** doesn't stop turning... ever, while the driver side stops turning when it reaches "Lo." Not sure if this has anything to do with it
