NHTSA Complaint #11279950 — 2013 DODGE AVENGER

WHEN HEAT IS ON, THE PASSENGER SIDE BLOWS COLD (I LIVE IN WI SO, WHEN I SAY COLD, I MEAN COLD) AIR FROM EVERY BLOWING PORT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE... OCCURS AT ALL TIMES, WHETHER STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. HAVE TRIED A FEW THINGS RECCOMENDED ON MULTIPLE OTHER PAGES BY PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. NO HELP. THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS DO BLOW WARM AIR BUT, NOT CLOSE TO AS HOT AS IT SHOULD BE. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE RIGHT AROUND 118,000 MILES. I START MY CAR 20 MINUTES BEFORE I LEAVE MY HOUSE AT 5AM TO BRING MY YOUNG CHILDREN TO DAYCARE AND BE TO WORK BY 6. WHEN GETTING IN AFTER BEING STARTED FOR 20 MIN... BARELY ANY DIFFERENCE IN TEMP WHICH, IS FRUSTRATING WHEN YOU DRIVE WITH YOUR BABIES 35 MINUTES IN THE COLD COLD COLD ALONG WITH SEVERAL DEER AND A WINDSHIELD THAT WON'T DEFROST COMPLETELY. HAVE PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM DEALER AND, SOMEHOW (WHAT A SHOCK) THERE IS NO HELP FOR ME AS 'THE ISSUES BEING DESCRIBED SOUND LIKE IT WAS BROUGHT ON BY YOU, THE VEHICLE OWNER OR, ENVIORMENT FACTORS'... IT HURTS KNOWING YOU ARE A LOYAL AND HONEST HUMAN WHO WORKS HARD EVERY DAY TO BARELY MAKE ENDS MEET AND THEN... TO HAVE YOUR CHARACTER SLANDERED BY THE (SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS EXTRA) LIFETIME WARRANTY THAT THE SALESMAN SO CONFIDENTLY SWORE BY ON THE DAY OF PURCHASE. OWNER MISUSE? THERE ARE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES WHO OWN THE EXACT SAME CAR... SORRY BUT, SAFE TO SAY THAT ISN'T COINCIDENTAL. I HAVE CHILDREN AND GROCERIES AND GAS TO GET TO WORK AND SCHOOL AND LIFE... IT MAY SOUND RIDICULOUS TO SOME BUT, THE $900-$1600 THEY ARE SAYING IT WOULD COST... DOESN'T COME EASILY FOR JUST EVERYONE. I'M JUST HOPING THAT SOME PEOPLE WILL CHOOSE TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND, STAND BEHIND THE VERY WORDS THAT LEAD THEM TO WHERE THEY ARE CURRENTLY IN LIFE. FAITH IN THESE HUMANS WILL HOPEFULLY BRING APPROPRIATE SOLUTIONS.
