Blower Problems of Ford Windstar

Rear blower motor in the rear of van smelled like it was burning and then stopped working. There was a recall on exact model, 1999, Ford, Windstar. The owner's malfunctioned part was not produced where the others were, so she was not included in the recall. The blower has not worked for a month. There were no prior problems with the blower. The owner took the van to a service station, and the service station informed consumer that there was a recall, on exactly what she should bring to Ford for veicle to be fixed. The service advised the owner to go to Ford for the recall. She then tried to make an appointment with Ford, and they said they wouldn't cover it. The owner tried to contact Ford. This was the first time this year that the air had been on. And that was when the burning odoe she smelled and the blower stopped working.

No heat or defroster for front half of vehicle, rear heater works fine. There is a blending door in the heater box on the firewall that apparently has a small motor that operates the blend door. The motor is fine. Mechanics tell me that a screw that holds the box in place loosens allowing the box to warp which rubs or stops the rod attached to the motor and the blending door from moving smoothly. My motor operates fine but has broken the rod making a clicking noise when you operate the manual control from cold to hot. The door stays closed in the cold mode, no heat or defroster.

The heater blower chamber malfunctioned, causing defroster/ defogger and the heat system to become inoperative. Thus, reducing consumer's visibility. The entire heater blower chamber had to be replaced.
