Consumer Description

DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL: PASSENGER SIDE AIR STUCK AT ONE TEMPERATURE. PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT RESPOND TO ANY CONTROLS, STAYS AT FOR EXAMPLE AT 70 DEGREES. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. MECHANIC SAYS IT IS AN ELECTRICAL SERVO, RATHER THAN A VACUUM CANISTER. IT HAS COST ME $167 TO FIX BOTH TIMES. IT MAY ALSO BE HELPFUL TO KNOW THAT THE FIRST FAILURE HAPPENED AROUND MAY OF 2005 AND TEMPERATURE WAS ON FULL HEAT AND SECOND FAILURE HAPPENED THIS MAY OF 2006 AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS STUCK AT ABOUT 70 DEGREES. FURTHERMORE, THE TEMPERATURE LIGHTS OF THE DUAL CLIMATE PANEL CYCLE AS THOUGH IT IS FUNCTIONAL. *JB
