The ac button broke, wont stay in on first or second attempt at about 39000 miles.  so I keep the switch in the on position all summer long in fear it wont hold the next time.

It is not a common problem, but get the switch replaced. If it shorts out, you could get expensive electrical problems. The dealer will most likey have to do this, unless you know a really good mechanic
