Consumer Description

CLICKING NOISE WHEN TURNING THE AIR FROM HOT TO COLD OR COLD TO HOT. CLICKING NOISE STOPPED AND HEAT NO LONGER WORKS. I HAVE NO DEFROST/DEFOG WHICH CAUSES PROBLEMS WITH VISIBILITY. I AM TAKING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIRS THIS WEEK. PAINT FADED AND CORRODED ON THE HOOD, TRUNK, ROOF, QUARTER PANELS, AND DOOR PANELS IN 2004. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE RECENTLY TAKEN IT TO A BODY SHOP AND HAD IT REPAINTED. *TR
