Description of the problem | Whenever car is on and parked, not moving, or going slower than 20 mph, the air conditioning does not cool and blows extremely hot air into the car. If i am in traffic, at a stop light, getting drive through, or parking the car, it quickly gets dangerously hot. Right now we have 100+ degree days consistently, with my child in the back seat i fear driving my vehicle in this heat as it is known to kill in texas. My father is an electrician and when i told him he said it looks like an electrical or power problem because he thinks the car idles too low. |
