My issue has been that the compressor has been working overtime and heating up so much that a stress fracture somewhere along the line created a freon leak. They're supposed to replace the unit sometime.
What I've been doing, though, is simply setting the thermostat so that it doesn't stay on constantly. As long as it has ample off time, it cools ok when it kicks on. Still not as good as a brand new compressor, but it's far better than if the unit stays on all day and simply doesn't cool while burning electricity.
