Consumer Description
THE FRONT DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER WOULD NOT BLOW AIR. THE VENTILATION CONTROL CABLE WAS REPLACED BECAUSE THERE WAS A "KINK" IN THE CABLE THAT CAUSED THE AIR TO NOT BE DIRECTED TO THE DEFROSTER. THE SERVICE TECH RECOMMENDED THAT I NOT USE THE RECIRCULATE FUNCTION ON MY VENTILATION SYSTEM AS IT SEEMS THAT WHEN THE CONTROL IS IN THAT POSITION, THE CABLE WILL START TO "KINK." THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AS I SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE EVERY FUNCTION ON THE VENTILATION SYSTEM. *TR
