Refrigerator/freezer issues

Ok - the continuing saga of the possessed fridge...
We are now 6 weeks into a non properly functioning fridge.
4 weeks ago - called Norcold. They had small company pull out fridge and do all of these tests on it. They said doesn't seem to be cooling unit - maybe installation. Small company puts fridge back in and now it won't work on AC - only PL.
3 weeks - Norcold wants company to come back and pull out fridge again so that the compartment can be measured. WTF! Small company says no thanks - can't help any more.
Have since borrowed an apartment sized fridge and are storing frozen goods in 2 different freezers of co-workcampers and boss
Then until now - fridge fluctuates between 38 and 47 degrees. Freezer goes between 30 and 38.
The differences seem to be based on how warm it is outside. The warmer the day the higher the temps.
Last Sunday - drive to El Paso to have a "Norcold authorized service provider" check it out.
After driving 235 miles to get here we get all hooked up. Decide to give it one more try on AC and guess what - IT WORKS!
Now, the outside temps are cooler here - by about 15 degrees. Monday's temp was 64 with a low of 41. Temps were on the high end of normal yesterday afternoon but well within the normal ranges this morning. Go figure
Service man comes out. Checks temps, ventilation, thermistor, fans, wiring that he can see, seals that he can see and says all looks fine.
We leave for about 5 hours. Day is cool, around 45 to 47 but sun has been shining on that side, but not directly. We get home and temps are back up to 40 in the fridge and 32 in the freezer.
Has anyone else out there have this type of issue with their Nevercold fridge?
