Consumer Description

THE HEAT/AC CONTROL ON MY 2002 FORD TAURUS SUDDENLY STARTED WORKING ONLY ON THE HIGHEST SETTING, AND THE AIR IS NEITHER HOT NOR COLD. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE FLOOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT ALSO BECOMES DAMP AFTER WASHING THE VEHICLE OR A HARD RAIN. I ALSO HAVE RUST INSIDE THE BLOWER MOTOR ITSELF, WHICH I AM SUSPECTING IS FROM THE WATER LEAK. *TR
