Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE 6/6/2018 AS OF TODAY 82/2018 MY AIR CONDITIONING HAS STOPPED WORKING 6 TIMES. THE WIRES UNDER THE DASH ARE EXTREMELY HOT AND THERE'S A "BURNING SMELL" COMING THROUGH MY VENTS. TONIGHT EVERY TIME I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON THE AIR CONDITIONING DIDN'T COME ON. THE WIRES THAT ARE CONNECTED TO THE BLOWER BOX APPARENTLY HAVE A SHORT ON IT. IT GOES OFF WHILE IN MOTION AND STOPPED. THIS ALONE ISN'T SAFE FOR AN INDIVIDUAL BUT HIGHLY UNSAFE FOR CHILDREN THAT RIDE IN THE VEHICLE
