Consumer Description

THE HEATER HAS STOPPED WORKING. THE MECHANIC SAYS THE DOOR ROD HAS EITHER BROKEN OR THE MOTOR HAS GONE BAD. MORE THAN 200 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS MALFUNCTION IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL VEHICLE HAVE BEEN REPORTED. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED UNDER THE FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 103 - WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING SYSTEMS - PASSENGER CARS, MULTIPURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES, TRUCKS, AND BUSES (EFFECTIVE 1-1-88). THIS STANDARD SPECIFIES REQUIREMENTS FOR WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING AND DEFOGGING SYSTEMS. THIS IS NOT RANDOM IN ANY WAY. I THINK WE AS CONSUMERS SHOULD BAND TOGETHER AND FORM A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAIN THE MAKER OF THIS VEHICLE. I WILL BE IN CONTACT!!! *TR
