Consumer Description

WHEN TURNING THE CAR ON THE FRONT AIR CONDITIONER VENTS WON'T BLOW MOST OF THE TIME. IF THE WIRING UNDER THE DASH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS TAPPED/BUMPED IT WILL THEN START BLOWING. IT STOPS BLOWING AND STARTS BLOWING AGAIN WHEN BUMPED. THE WIRING GETS HOT. THERE ARE MULTIPLE CASES OF THIS BEING DESCRIBED ON THE INTERNET. THERE IS SOMEONE WHO STATES THEIR VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE AND BURNED TO A SKELTON WITHIN 5 MINUTES. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM.THIS HAPPENS AT ALL TIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING WITH THE AC TURNED ON. THE VEHICLE CAN BE EITHER STATIONARY OR MOVING. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JULY 2020 AND IT'S BEEN HAPPENING ANY TIME THE AC IS RUNNING.
