Description of the problem	The heater core is clogging not letting antifreeze thru heater core has clogged numerous times. We have had to replace it, flush it, etc. In our vehicle, it blows warm/hot on drivers side but as you cross over vehicle it blows cold on passenger side. This is an expensive repair and shop has said this seems to be a design problem causing metal bits to collect and build up and block up the heater core. Something is causing blockage. This has occurred over the last several years. The last time it was replaced was in 2015. I opted not to have it replaced again this time until we figure out the cause. Please note that the service tech checked the blend door, the thermostat, and flushed the heater core. He said the heater core needs replacing again. This is almost $800 again on this part. I spoke with chrysler jeep to make sure it is documented but not sure what they do with this information. During the conversation their people were saying different things regarding how they monitor problems with vehicles and/or parts. To ensure that this defect is reported i am filing a complaint with the nhtsa. I would like for them to research what is causing this problem so that it does not occur in the future as well as if it becomes apparent that their is a design flaw or other in the heater core system or engine that proper action is taken. Be it recall or other.
