“The heater blower fan in my 2000 Chrysler Cirrus continually burns out in the low and medium settings. It only operates on the high setting. I have replaced it 3 times, the last replacement lasted one week. I go to a small independent repair shop who have had 11 other customers with the same problem with multiple failures.”

And it has always been on the highway when the car is in higher r.p.m's as it never done it while on city roads... Now car won't start at all and reads no bus... I entered it at google and many other's have gone through the same problems I have and with many models but the same engines either 2.4 v6 or the 2.5 v6 , dodge or Chrysler Cirrus ,stratus,breeze,intrepid,and earlier 300's... Sounds like it should be a recall to me... …”
