Consumer Description

DT: THE FAN IN THE VEHICLE IS BLOWING HOT AIR. WHEN VENT IS USED (110 DEGREES) OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS ABOUT 70 DEGREES. IT IS APPARENT THAT THE AIR COMING FROM VENT HAS BEEN HEATED. THE ENGINE OR HOT AIR FROM ENGINE HAS LEAKED INTO THE AIR INTAKE. IN ORDER TO BE COMFORTABLE IN VEHICLE, AIR CONDITIONER MUST BE USED EXCESSIVELY IN ORDER TO COOL DOWN CONSTANT FLOW OF HOT AIR COMING FROM VENT PIPE. THE PROBLEM IS MOST APPARENT WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED OR AT LOW SPEEDS. DEALER REPORTS THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING SINCE THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM. THIS LEADS TO DECREASED FUEL EFFICIENCY. *TT *NM
