Update on Root Cause: I went to leave the dealer, my car pulled up, I sat down and right away got back out, the AC didn't work again. I don't think the service tech verified the AC system before letting it leave the shop. That was the reason I brought it in but it happens. The root cause was the car was low on freon due to the O ring leaking at the AC compressor. After driving straight from Orange County to San Francisco with temps as high as 107 degrees, it might have fried the O ring on the compressor, then letting it sit for a long period of time let the freon leak out.

While my car was in at the shop they also did an alignment... just after I did one two months ago. The service tech showed me two bolts on the front suspension that were backing out and it was the reason my suspension recently felt a bit loose.
