Description of the problem | While i was driving i had my defroster on, and i noticed the passenger side started to fog up, but not the driver side. When i got to a red light, i felt the passenger side blowing cold air instead of hot air which caused me not to see well due to half the windshield being fogged up. After doing research, i found out that a lot of owners with 15-17 mustangs have this issue and it has to do with the blend door actuator. I replaced that part and installed it and it worked for 2 days and went out again. As it gets colder i fear this is going to create more of a safety hazard. I truly feel that this should be a recall by ford considering this is a safety function. |
