“1) we were driving from kalamazoo to chicago when the I went to turn on the air conditioner it blew extremely hot air to the point where the dash was too hot to touch. We unplugged the air completely but and even shut the tried to open the vents but it continued to blow hot air we had to keep switching from dash to floor to keep from burning our feet and faces. We try to use the heat now and it blows the same extreme hot air (hotter than a normal heat control) for the winter time. We do not have the 320.00 to replace the climate control panel that everyone is telling us is wrong with it. …”
