Consumer Description

2001 DODGE DURANGO R/T HAS MELTED WIRING LOCATED AT THE FRONT BLOWER FAN RESISTOR CONNECTION. THE MELTED WIRING AND CONNECTOR WERE PRODUCING AN EXTREMELY BAD BURNING ODOR WHEN THE BLOWER FAN STOPPED WORKING EXCEPT ON THE HIGH SETTING. THE FAN WILL NOT BE USED UNTIL REPAIRS ARE MADE. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BECAUSE MY LOCAL DEALER SELLS A REPLACEMENT PIGTAIL WHICH THEY SAY THEY REPLACE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS INDEED A FIRE HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. MY LOCAL DEALER ADVISED THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME. *TR
