Consumer Description

MY AC/ HEATER STOPPED BLOWING OUT AIR. I DID MY RESEARCH AFTER DISCOVERING IT WOULD COST UPWARDS OF $1,000 TO REPAIR. I FOUND TONS OF VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE ADDRESSING THIS EXACT PROBLEM. THAT IS HOW I KNEW WHERE TO LOOK. AS YOU CAN SEE THERE IS A MAJOR FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THIS UNIT THAT POSES IN MY OPINION A MAJOR SAFETY RISK. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AND NOT SOMETHING OWNERS OF THESE CARS NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR. PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHED PICTURES SHOWING THE MELTED PARTS AND FIRE DAMAGE THAT TOOK PLACE IN MY CAR. I DO NOT THINK IT RIGHT OR JUSTIFIED THAT OWNERS OF THESE CARS ARE NOT MADE AWARE OR HAVING IT FIXED BY THE COMPANY.
