I guess works as designed. The dealer took a look at it a second time and quoted the FSM, where (re-circulating), with temperature at intake at 77 and 65% humidity, the table says to expect 52-57 degrees out of the central vent, and they measured 53, well within the norm.
In the meantime over the weekend I "test drove" another 2010 Rogue for comparison's sake, which registered about 10-12 degrees colder using my temperature probe. While my mom's Rogue was 58, this one was 44-46, after sitting on the lot in direct sun, albeit this test subject was not black, but rather gray. I cannot explain this discrepancy away, but I suppose it will just always remain a mystery.
In any case, guess I should have headed straight for the FSM instead of wasting people's time. I will just instruct my mom to park in the shade and make sure to always keep it on Max A/C.
Thanks.
