| Description of the problem | There is a problem with the climate control system (fcim) that causes the temperature to run up to maximum temperature. It cannot be shut off. This is very dangerous because with extremely elevated temperatures in the car you are very liable to fall asleep. Or try to reduce the temp by banging on the controls, this makes you very distracted. This problem exists whenever the car is running, in motion or stopped. |
