Details
What's wrong: If this were to occur, the blower would not function properly and the mode selector would remain in the last known setting.
Why it matters: If the windshield began to fog or frost, there may not be enough airflow to clear the windshield, resulting in reduced driver visibility and a possible crash without prior warning.
The fix: Dealers will reprogram the HVAC control head module. The recall is expected to begin on December 17, 2008.
