The car is almost 3 years old and I've never done anything with the cooling system. Do I need the cooling system flushed or does it need something else? It just doesn't seem to be getting as cold as it used to.

It probably just needs to re-charged with coolant. That happens every few yrs. If it is running good other than the temperature not being as cold that should do it.
If you have a friend that knows how to do it you can go to an Auto Zone or someplace like that and buy the kit with coolant very cheap. Probably about $30. If you have to take it in to a mechanic, they are going to charge a high price for it.
Good Luck

You what, that's is not a big dill,all you have,go on the Internet and search where they fix air conditioners but if you like working with your own hands like me and you love your car,go buy a book that that guides you how to fix your own air conditioner.I do most of things on my car by myself because i believe that people wont do as good as i want.

It likely needs to be recharged with refrigerant. Take it to your mechanic and he can take care of it rather easily. He may also want to check to make certain there are no leaks in the A/C lines. If you have a leak, it can get expensive to repair.

check the fluid levels in your engine. make sure the radiator has enough water, the oil is full, and there is antifreeze. these are the first things to go when having A/C trouble.
if they are all in check, then you might have a thermostat problem, and you will want to bring it to a mechanic to get it checked out.

Take it to a mechanic. Maybe the filters are dirty or some other minor engine problem could be hindering it. Good luck!

Go buy a new one. Unless it is under warranty, this repair could be costly.

Have your technician check the freon in your compressor. It may be low.
