Consumer Description

THE BLOWER MOTOR ON THE AC/HEATER KEEPS FAILING SO THAT YOU CAN'T GET EITHER HOT OR COOL AIR INTO THE CAR. ONCE IT HAPPENS YOU JUST HAVE NO HEAT OR COOL CONTROL. THIS IS MISERABLE IN THE SUMMER BUT VERY DANGEROUS IN THE WINTER BECAUSE YOU CANNOT DEFROST YOUR WINDOWS SO THAT IT WILL BE SAFE TO DRIVE. EVEN IF IT'S NOT FREEZING THE WINDOW JUST BREATHING INSIDE THE CAR WILL FOG THINGS SO YOU CANNOT SEE IF IT'S RAINING OR COLD OUTSIDE WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. THE BLOWER MOTOR FOR THE AC/HEATING NEEDS TO WORK. THAT PART HAS FAILED 3 TIMES ON MY VERY SAME VEHICLE. I KNOW THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING TO JUST ME ALONE. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN TO HAVE THIS FIXED AGAIN YESTERDAY THE MECHANIC SAID THAT ON THE HYUNDAI THE BLOWER SYSTEM FOR THE AC/HEATING IS A REGULAR PROBLEM IN THE HYUNDAI. I DON'T THINK HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SAY THAT BUT HE DID. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.
