Ninety five degree weather is probably the worst case limit for AC design in Mighigan. Are your AC bills abnormally high or is just that your AC unit just running a lot but your bills are still reasonable? 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.
Many utility companies will give their customers homes a free energy efficiency inspection and a written report for free. I've had one done and I learned a lot, both the pro's and the con's about my house. Check with your gas company or electric company for a free audit.
Those "saver switches" can knock 5% to 20% off your cooling bills too.
