Description of the problem | This is concerning the same vehicle as in my previous complaint: 10507443. While driving into work on 4/8/13, i put the front and rear defoggers on. Later when i went to switch them off, they wouldn't. I thought maybe there was a timer. I waited five minutes and then was able to switch off the rear defogger. I still was unable to switch off the front. I pushed all the bottoms to switch the air position and even turned the entire a/c-heating system off -the defogger stuck "on" and would not shut off until i shut everything down. I have reported both this and the previous incident to the dealer i bought the car from, and am hoping to schedule maintenance within the week. |
