2017 70S question:

I know this sounds like a 1st-world whine, but has anybody ever have problems with cabin temp being out of whack?

It seems like I have to set the desired cabin temp unusually high to get a comfortable interior. I typically run the climate control n AUTO, with DUAL ZONE off. The issue is that I have to keep the temp set unusually high (up around 75-76 in the summer) it freezes me out. Fan blowing at a high setting, arctic air blowing out, etc. Move it up to a higher temp and it adjusts appropriately. In the Winter, it's the exact same...it blows very little warm air unless I keep the setting up in the same 75-76 range. If I set it at anything lower, the fan stays on a really low setting and the output is lukewarm.

Is there a master thermostat in the Climate Control system that could be adjusted (or replaced)?

Could it be that the driver-side temp sensor is bad, as it drives the thermostat when not in DUAL mode?
