Ninety five degree weather is probably the worst case limit for AC design in Mighigan.

Your AC may just be designed on the smaller side for minimum initial investment and higher energy efficiency.
If your winter heating bills and your summer cooling bills are both high then your insulation or windows may be a problem. If your winter heating costs are reasonable I wouldn't get too excited about the AC costs. In Michigan you will have a lot more heating-degree-days than cooling-degree-days.
Even very high efficiency windows only have an R value of R-2 to R-3 maximum. That's still very low compared to the R-19 in your walls and the R-38 in your ceilings. Closing the shades, drapes or blinds can double the R-value of any window.
