Consumer Description

IN MY 2016 FORD MUSTANG ECO-BOOST, I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE AIR WAS NOT AS COOL AS IT WAS IN THE PAST. I DID NOT PAY MUCH ATTENTION AS I DID NOT HAVE FAR TO DRIVE. THE NEXT TIME I STARTED THE VEHICLE THE AIR CONDITIONING HAD STARTED TO BLOW WARM AIR, AFTER AWHILE I NOTICED A WHITE FILM ON THE INTERIOR OR THE CABIN. I LOOKED UP SEVERAL FORUMS ON WHAT THIS ISSUE COULD BE AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE MUSTANG OWNERS OF THIS YEAR THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AND IT SEEMS TO BE THE EVAPORATOR CORE. SO I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WOULD COST $1900 TO FIX THE SYSTEM DUE TO THE LABOR OF TAKING OUT THE DASH. I HAVE BEEN A FORD OWNER ALL MY LIFE AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
