 Description of the problemI am writing to request an investigation into chevrolet cruze heater blend door actuator failures. The issue is a small plastic gear that strips out and does not allow the blend door to cycle from windshield defrost / dash vents / and floor vents. This is a high safety concern in cold / rainy weather driving due to the vehicle operator is unable to adjust the bled door to defrost the windshield. This in turn allows the windshield to become fogged, (or frosty in extreme cold) which leads to very poor visibility. I have a professional youtube channel that shows the issue in detail the link is https://youtu. Be/i5pdaia0p-8 quotes to repair this issue range from $800. 00 to $1500. 00. Being this failure can lead to an accident caused from poor visibility from an obvious design flaw, to cut corners and save money, this needs to be looked at. My video has nearly 11,000 views from people with this problem. Also almost every forum online have people discussing this problem. I believe it is n bad taste for chevrolet to not yet acknowledge this as a recall.
