Default A/C cuts off when I hit a hard bump...

My A/C works fine and cranks out the cool air, but whenever I hit a hard bump or even accelerate at a fast pace, the a/c stops running - even though the fan is still pushing air. I either have to shut the engine down or turn it off for a few minutes. Any suggestions? New Climate Control switch or is there something else that might be loose? This has got to be something fairly simple.

Check the compressor clutch gap. You might need the clutch reshimmed.
