| Description of the problem | The car is a 2012 honda cr-v lx awd. The driver's side heat is significantly lower than the passenger side heat. This is a know issue, honda tsb 14-063, low driver's side heat. The low driver's side heat makes driving in the snow dangerous as there is not enough heat to adequately defrost the windshield. The driver's side windshield wiper will also start to ice up the passenger side is fine. I measured a 40 - 50 degree f temperature differential between the far passenger and driver side vents using a thermocouple display device. This occurs while the vehicle is in motion or stationary and on city streets and highways. |
