“Heat gauge is faulty and it will blow hot heat only out of driver side vents and blows cold out of the rest of the vents. Heat gauge says its running fine but it is really overheating to the boiling point. I am not sure how long it has had this problem as I just bought it 2 weeks ago and have had no use for the heat till now and never drove it far enough till today when I noticed the heat gauge and heard it boiling over with steam coming out of the hood.”
