Consumer Description

UPON ENTERING VEHICLE AND STARTING UP TO GO TO WORK, THE HEATING AND VENTILATION SYSTEM DID NOT WORK , TURNED CAR ON AND OFF MULTIPLE TIMES AND STILL WOULD NOT WORK. DROVE CAR TO WORK AND THE HEAT WAS STUCK ON HIGH AND THE VENTS WERE UNTOUCHABLE DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO OPERATE HEAT/AIR OR ANY OTHER BUTTONS ON THE SYSTEM FOR THAT. STARTED RAINING ON THE WAY AND HAD TO USE WIPERS AND PUT WINDOWS UP AND WINDOWS STARTED TO FOG AND UNABLE TO CLEAR THEM DUE TO THIS REASON ALSO, WILL TRY TO TAKE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN THE MORNING AND HOPE THEY CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS ABOUT THE 3RD TIME SINCE I HAD THE CAR THAT IT HAS DONE THIS, BUT THE OTHER 2 TIMES IT WAS ONLY FOR A SHORTER TIME THAN THIS. *TR
