Consumer Description

The Blower Motor Resistor and Harness are faulty causing smoking and short circuit instead of blowing a fuse. Im afraid this could cause the car to catch on fire. I opened the area where the resistor is located and the equipment reads "MADE IN JAPAN". This makes me concerned that there may be other areas of the electrical system that have not been tested properly for safety.
