 Description of the problemLast spring, april 2015, i noticed that my defroster was not operating properly. The air blows out of the a. C. Vents, but not the top dashboard vents. I went online to see: 1. How widespread the problem was (very common in older vehicles; i bought my truck new in 2004 from a dealer that is now out of business) 2. What the reaction from dodge was ( $1. 500. 00 to repair, even though they must do an airbag recall repair in the same area) 3. How expensive it would be to have a professional repair job done ( est. $1,200. 00 - $1,500. 00) 4. How expensive/difficult it would be to attempt to repair myself (uniformly inexpensive parts are available in metal for around $50. 00, not the cheap dodge plastic) ( do - it - yourself instructions are complex, counter-intuitive, time consuming... 8 hours or more, and require special tools as well as physical dexterity) i am stuck having to find $1,500. 00 for a repair, or drive in the fog this winter with no defrost. All because of a $1. 500. 00 repair bill for a $50. 00 part.
