2023 Rivian R1T — a/C is cold on the highway but warm at stoplights

2023 Rivian R1T Quad-Motor, about 39,500 miles. The A/C works well with road speed but gets noticeably warmer at long lights, then cools again almost immediately once moving. Does that point more toward airflow/fan behavior than refrigerant level?

I wouldn't throw parts yet. Write temp, speed, and in-gear vs coast when the 2023 Rivian R1T does it — then decide on parts. That's the branch I'd chase this week. Have you gotten a second quote in writing? Trying not to diagnose from the couch.
