Consumer Description
UNDER HEAVY ACCELERATION (I.E. HIGHWAY ON-RAMP), A VERY STRONG ODOR (BURNING RUBBER, EXHAUST?) ENTERS THE CABIN. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME, WHETHER THE AC IS ON OR OFF, RECIRCULATING OR FRESH AIR. THE ODOR IS EXTREMELY STRONG AND LASTS SEVERAL MINUTES. I'M ESPECIALLY CONCERNED FOR MY 3 YEAR OLD SON WHO IS EXPOSED TO THIS.
