I noticed my a/c was not blowing air out of the vents, along with a loud humming coming from the a/c motor. I discovered the recirculating air door broke and it was laying on top of the a/c fan motor blocking the air from coming out of the vents. I have read and heard of several complaints of this happening to many other Dodge owners. The cost is ridiculous to replace such an easy fix.

Unbearable noise and vibration comes from dash area when a/c or heater fan switch is turned on to the high position. Took truck to the dealership and they diagnosed it as the "blend door" being broken. Truck just went out of warranty so dealer wants approx $700 to fix the problem. With the blend door not working properly, this will cause the windows to fog excessively in the winter as the blower can not be turned on high to clear them. Additionally, summertime driving here in the south gets extremely hot and the a/c system will not cool properly on the low setting. Researched the problem on the internet and found this to be a common problem in that year model truck as the blend door is not engineered properly. The problem was cured in the 2007 model.

I purchased a $34,000. 00 Dodge 2500 diesel pickup around August of 06, 16 months later the heater defroster, and all heater controls as well as air conditioner controls stopped working. Chrysler knows of this problem, because they have sent out flyers to all their mechanics and have available a kit that is supposed to fix the problem. Without a defroster it's pretty nerve racking to drive this vehicle. But if Chrysler can get out of the recall and charge the consumer $861. 00 to fix their problem they are way ahead of the game. I have talked to many, many people with the same problem so its not an isolated situation. Chrysler will not even talk to you about the problem.

The switch on the climate control panel cannot change the air from the floor to the vents or defrost. The door in the air box does not move.

Intermittent climate control (hvac) operation, poor air conditioning performance not cooling interior. After four attempts to fix a part has been on order from daimler Chrysler since 07/14/06. The part has never arrived at the servicing dealership or do they know when it will arrive. The climate control system is non-operation and has no air movement from any vent on any setting. Two weeks I ago I had to drive the truck to work without the defroster working. I had to pull over several times to wipe the windshield with a towel so I could see to drive. A written complaint letter was sent to d. Chrysler on 05/23/06 stating the problems I have had, no resolution so far. I have now gone over 30 days without a functioning climate control system. No help from d. Chrysler or the three dealers that have worked on the truck. Vehicle: 2006 Dodge ram/mega cab, VIN#3d7ks19d86g138331.

A downpour came while I was driving with 5 children in the truck. The window fogged up and I turned on defroster and the air wouldn't come through defroster! I was blinded! the air will not blow through my defroster.

Hvac system will not let the defroster work. Dodge has issued a TSB for this issue. TSB 24-004-03.
