    In terms of how to do it? There is a TSB for it,

    https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10166026-9999.pdf


    but I would DIY it because the TSB calls for some drastic fixes. Simply putting in a relay tied to the compressor clutch to switch the fan on and off from the battery could be done to run the fan as needed.

    There is a TSB for it, if you are still under 3/36 warranty you can have it done at the Dealership.
