Consumer Description

I HAVE HAD 4 HVAC CONTROL HEADS BURN OUT BETWEEN A 2012 VELOSTER AND MY CURRENT 2016 VELOSTER I PURCHASED AFTER THE 2012 WAS TOTALLED. THE PART IS BURNING OUT BECAUSE IT OVERHEATS AND IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT CAUSES EVEN GREATER DAMAGE AND RISK OF INJURY IN THE FUTURE IF NOT ADDRESSED.
