Consumer Description

A/C, DEFROST CONTROL HAS BEEN HARD TO CHANGE SINCE PURCHASE OF VEHICLE. PLASTIC CONTROL FOR CONNECTION OF KNOB BROKE. CALLED CLOSEST DEALER (OVER 60 MILES AWAY) AND THEY ARE AWARE OF PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT FIX BECAUSE THEY FEEL THAT IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I DISAGREE. COST FOR REPAIRS QUOTED AT OVER $600 PARTS PLUS LABOR. WITHOUT REPAIR CAR CAN NOT SAFELY BE DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 5 MONTHS OF THE YEAR IN THIS AREA. *JB
