Details

What's wrong: Due to an incorrect heater (HVAC) controller signal, the air flow from the air vents may randomly change direction and/or the temperature may briefly cycle between hot and cold.

Why it matters: This condition could affect defroster performance, resulting in poor windshield visibility and potentially cause a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect for damage and if necessary repair the mode door shaft free of charge. The safety recall began on December 7, 2010.
