The vehicle is a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The VIN of this vehicle was 2GCEK13T75_. The heater blower would not turn off which drained the battery. Now both parts need to be replaced. According to Chevrolet, this part was a recall item if made from a certain manufacture. Apparently, our part was a different manufacturer which is why we didn't get the recall notice. Since our part failed, perhaps, it is a design defect or the other manufacturers were delinquent during the assembly process as well. Please investigate to see if we may qualify for a recall on this part. This blower issue occurred Jan. 22, 2014.

I have had so many major problems with my 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan! I bought it used in 2008 w/ 68k miles. At that time the transmission had already been replaced. I had to replace the entire power steering system ($2000), auto window regulator, ac blower, tires, alternator belt, water pump, etc. The engine light has been on for some time now and mechanic says misfiring spark plugs. When serviced for problem(@ 170k miles) discovered original factory sp still in. Horrible corrosion/build up, had 2 fuel system flushes. Light on again. Newest & most dangerous problems,on multiple occasions now, van has completely turned off while driving, idling, and parked. It happens randomly and unexpectedly. More frequently while at lower speeds or parked but once while I was actually driving. When it cuts off the oil light remains illuminated. The car turns right back on. 5 times while driving 25-50mph has gone into cruise control by itself, and I loose control until it decides to give it back! today, for the first time, after parking and turning car off myself, it would not restart. Ignition not responding, no noise, nothing. Tried to jump it and nothing, notices that lights and other electrical components not effected. Fortunately an observer also happened to be a mechanic, he took out the starter fuse and stuck some wires in the socket and had me turn the key, it started!!! he said that it seems there is an ignition communication problem, a. K. A. Computer problem. I have 4 kids that are always with me and this is our only vehicle. If the vehicle is dependent on the computer to function, then I have zero room for communication problems. I have reviewed all of the complaints for this make/model/year, there are multiple complaints that are similar if not identical to mine. I wonder how many complaints have to be filed before action is taken? does someone have to die first?. This issue happened on Wednesday, Aug. 15, 2012.

The vehicle was a 2002 Dodge 1500. The vehicle identification number (VIN) of this Dodge 1500 is 1D3HU18Z22_. Vehicle blower motor fuse was blown on this occasion, and then later dates the ac condenser fan fuse was blown. The 40 amp fuse for the blower motor was replaced to fix the first problem. The condenser fan fuse was replaced at least once, and then the fuse box - where the condenser fan fuse goes - melted so that the fuse could not be replaced. Taking it to the dealer today. Also noticed lots of dashboard cracking complaints. I also have a dashboard that is seriously cracked. Paid to replace the part closest to the window, but the dashboard over the instrument panel was not replaced. Asked dealer to replace it three times, and all three times they said none was in stock. One person told me that they don't like replacing them because of the complexity of the job. This blower issue occurred Saturday, June 7, 2003.

I own a 1996 Ford Explorer sport 4x4, 4. 0 liter v6 with 5 speed manual transmission. This is a motor made in germany and the truck, in the louisville, ky. Ford plant. Rodents took up residence in the heating system, and filled the heater blower assembly and ducting with scavenged materials, which took up approx. 1 cubic foot of space, once extracted. Much to my benefit, the material just so happened to be fire resistant stuffing from my archery target, stored in the same building. I started my vehicle and immediately upon turning on the heater, I heard a terrible noise which ended abruptly. My heater stopped when the noise stopped. In an effort to diagnose the problem I inspected the engine compartment. I then noticed a burnt smell, but saw no smoke. Upon replacing my blower motor I inspected the old one, which has charred remnants of the foreign material inside and wrapped around the electrical components. The only opening to the inner components of the blower motor is about 1" in diameter and has a rubber tube plugged into it. It appeared undisturbed and was connected when I first serviced it. I also discovered an opening on the lower side of the blower fan housing, near the firewall. This unobstructed opening facilitated the rodents' entry to the heating system. It is of my opinion this is unsafe, and had the foreign material not been flame resistant, I'm convinced my vehicle would have burned. I entered my VIN number into Ford's official web site, and was returned zero results for recalls of any sort. I did not find any recalls related to heater blowers for similar models either. I have repaired the heating system but am at a loss for how to prevent this in the future, as this opening still exists and I'm unaware of any sanctioned remedies. This issue happened on Jan. 1, 2014.

My 2006 Honda Ridgeline air conditioner blower started to only work intermittently in early September. I put off taking it to the dealership and it then stopped working completely within a day or two. At that point I took it in, the dealer said it was a bad transistor. They replaced the transistor and that did not fix the problem. They then took apart the dash and said the interior air filter was clogged ( I park under a tree in my driveway ) and due to that the blower motor burned up and melted the wiring. The dealership said it would cost $2200. 00 to fix, my non-dealer, ex-Honda mechanic said he though it was a faulty design or a faulty transistor and heard of others having similar problems. He did not think in any way the internal air filter idea had anything to due with the blower overheating. He recommended to call Honda corp in torrance CA. The consequence it I do not have ac in 90 to 100 degree weather in the san francisco bay area in California. Due to the cost, I have yet to fix it, Honda has done nothing and we are miserable in the heat. This blower issue occurred Tuesday, September 2, 2008.

2008 Hyundai Sonata. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle problems shifting into reverse or park and faulty brake light switch . The consumer stated her son drove the vehicle to school, and when he tried to straighten the vehicle, he discovered that it would not shift into reverse or park. Her son had to get assistance, to push the vehicle out of the parking space, so he could shift into drive. Her son was able to drive away, and while driving, it became apparent the cruise control was not responding normally by disengaging when he applied the brakes. He immediately drove to an auto center. The auto center determined the brake light switch was faulty and replaced it. The consumer stated shortly after purchasing the vehicle, she began having problems with the bower/fan switch, which would operate intermittently. After several visits to the dealer, they finally replaced the fan on December 6, 2011. On or about July 2012, she again began to experience the blower/fan operating intermittently. The dealer offered to do a diagnostic test to determine the problem. However, the warranty had expired by one week. Updated 11/25/13. This blower issue occurred Wednesday, Aug. 14, 2013.

The vehicle involved is a 2003 Infiniti G35. My Infiniti g 35 first began having problems with the cd player. It no longer works, but has now progressed to the radio and ac or heater freezing up. It occurs more frequently as time goes on. The safety issue is that I can not control the defrost or heat when it freezes. It happens when I am driving and yesterday the heater on the car turned itself up to 90 degrees with the blower at full blast. My daughter is a college student and I am concerned that when she drives back home on weekends that she will not be able to control the defroster this winter. We never know when this will happen and would hate for her to be on the interstate in the middle of no where and not be able to use the defroster. We also never know if the air or heat will turn to its low or high with the blower at full speed. Several car mechanics have mentioned that this is a well known problem with the 2003 Infiniti g 35's. On the internet there are numerous websites with many complaints on this issue as well. It was Nov. 3, 2009 when this blower issue occurred.

The car was a 1998 Lincoln Town Car. Piece which controls the hot air/cold air mixture's door cracked and allowed the sqare metal peg to spin freely in the cracked plastic - eliminating the ability to make the air either hotter or colder. We had to drive 3000 miles (much of it through icy roads and blizzards) without heat of any kind as a result of this defect. Very dangerous conditions, but Ford couldn't fit us in at any of their shops due to the length it would take (a week) to fix the problem. This ended up costing us over $2000 for Ford to fix upon our arrival home. Clearly a defective part since to get to the part a person must remove all the airbags, front seats, dash, and etc. - it isn't something that could have been user caused or user error. This was a very dangerous defect, as it severly limited our visibility (no defrosters). Ambient temperature in the vehicle was less than 30 degrees f for 1500 miles. It was 11/24/04 when this blower issue happened.

The car is a 1998 Lincoln Mark Viii. I have been reviewing the file on Lincoln mark 8's '97 & 98 and noticed that there were at least 10 complaints about the ventilation/heating/a/c blend door problem with this car. How many complaints does it take until you do something about it???? this is not only a very expensive repair to make, but failure, which can happen without warning, results in windshield fogging and inability of the system to clear the windshield . The Lincolns of distinction club, which supports mark 8's have had over 30-40 failures to date, some repeatedly. We now found that this failure happens in Lincoln town car/ taraus, etc, and that Ford has recently changed the replacement part designation. This strikes us as an acknowledgement that they are aware of the problem, but don't want to belly up to the bar and admit it . Can't your offices do anything or is this just a waste of our time trying to get a government agency to move on something that they claim they want to assist but ends in frustation of the citizens who take your charter seriously?. This problem occurred on February 10, 2003.

The vehicle involved was a 2002 Mazda Protege. I bought a new 2002 protã‰g㉠lx in June 2002 and had no problems for 6 months. Early January 2003, blower motor would not work on speeds 1, 2, and 3. Took the car to dealer and their report was that blower motor and resistor were defective. It happened again less than a week later and dealer stated again that the problem was a defective blower motor and resistor. The problem happened several times over the next three months all with the dealer stating that the blower motor and resistor were defective. The problem did not occur again until October 2003. Sometimes none of the speeds would work, and sometimes just the 4th speed. Sometimes the problem would happen while driving or over night, and sometimes the problem would go away. The blower motor and resistors have been replaced 5 times by dealer and to no avail. This car is clearly a lemon and a hazard to drive when not being able to see through the front windshield because of no heat to defrost or defogger the windshield while driving. It was 01/14/03 when this blower issue occurred.

The car involved is a 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer. The vehicle identification number (VIN) is JA3AJ86E23_. My hot/cool knob is broken. My heater fan only works on 4, ac only runs on 1,2 or3. I also had water on my passenger side floor due to condensation from the ac not properly draining. The water also got into my blower motor, which I have already replaced. Will be replacing heater resistor this week, so I can use my ac again. Hot/cool knob will cost at least $1000 to fix, so it's staying broken. This blower problem happened on August 1, 2007.

The car involved was a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer evolution. I have replaced part #138110 blower motor 3 times in the last 7 months. Apparently there is water/condensation that builds up and shuts down the motor. Today, the motor stopped again. I am now having to take it to be repaired for the 4th time and I am sure not the last time. The front and rear passenger floor areas are soaking wet. I put a new towel on floor areas every day and they are dripping wet by the end of the day. We have not been able to figure out what the exact problem is. It is dangerous not to have a fan for defrost/defog issues. I went all winter last winter without any heat/defrost. I am so tired of replacing this part. The repairs are really taking a toll on my finances too. It is very inconvenient to have to keep taking the car in to be repaired. The failure date was 08/01/2007.

Consumer has a 2007 Nissan Xterra. While driving 40 mph and shifting gears, the clutch failed. The vehicle was taken to a repair shop where the clutch was replaced. The failure recurred immediately after the contact drove eighteen miles. The vehicle was taken back to the mechanic that previously repaired the vehicle and replaced the clutch again. The contact also stated that the heater and air conditioner fuses became inoperable. When he consulted an authorized dealer, he was informed that the fan blower was defective and needed to be replaced. The fuse failed again and the dealer replaced the blower motor twice. The dealer also suspected that an electrical harness may have caused the failure to occur but the parts would not be available until the end of June 2010. The contact called the manufacturer who confirmed that his warranty had expired; therefore, he would be responsible for the repair expenses. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000. The current mileage was approximately 67,000. It was Nov. 15, 2009 when this blower issue occurred.

The vehicle was a 2007 Nissan Versa. The defrost system does not function properly. It doesn't matter how fast you are driving. The system cannot keep windows free from fog and during cold spells, it cannot keep the fog off the windshield. It is so dangerous to drive that I have actually had to pull off the road. No matter the interior temperature is set, whether you open the window, or how fast the blower goes, nothing seems to help see. The back passenger window have never been able to clear making it impossible to check for cars in the 'blind' area when changing lanes. I don't know what to do; I pray you can come up with a solution. Just think about driving down the road on a cold day or night and being able to see for a while. Then, the fog slowly overtakes the windows and windshield. Always the windows!. This problem occurred on Saturday, December 20, 2008.

The car involved is a 2000 SAAB 9-5. My 2000 SAAB 9-5 has only 39,500 miles. It has lost the ability to heat the drivers side which is a safety concern while driving in the winter. The system can not generate enough heat to melt the ice on the windshield. I had the car diagnosed at the SAAB dealer at the beginning of December. The diagnosis was that a motor shaft in a heater box was broken. Last week I found this shaft on the floor. It has extensive mechanical damage. In my opinion the only explanation is that it was defective when it was installed in the car or the design of the heating system was not done properly. It was Sun., Nov. 28, 2004 when this blower issue occurred.

The vehicle was a 1998 Subaru Outback. In rainy conditions or when using the defroster, the vehicle smells like mildew came through the vents which caused occupant not to use the defroster. May cause visual difficulty, and may result in an accident. In cold weather the trapped moisture in the system causes ice to form inside the windshield making driving impossible. Mildew and bacteria are strong enough to cause wheezing and burning eyes. Dealer/manufacturer have been contacted but provided no help. This blower problem happened on Monday, September 1, 1997.
