| Description of the problem | Cold weather causes ice to form on the inside and outside of the windshield and the heater control would not go to defrost. Had to stop in heavy traffic to scrape the inside and outside of windshield to remove ice. The air flow,blend door plastic actuator that is connected to the electric motor broke. The dealer told me it is very common and charged me 578. 93 to fix the problem. I had no choice but to have them fix it because it was to dangerous to drive in the winter. |
