| Air conditioning/ventilation system shut down. extreme heat behind the ac control panel, determined by touch, and ac system shutdown as well as the ventilation/fan system. tried to correct by shutting the system off, trying both automatic and manual settings, but did not work. even with the ac off the fan/ventilation system would not work either.only after turning the car off would the system work again. it must reset an overheat sensor someplace. dealer took the panel apart and inspected all wiring and found nothing. still doesn't explain this failure occurring twice in 10 months. | |||

| Consumer had repair done on steering column module, and on a/c cooling for fungus growth which had a bad odor inside vehicle that is still unresolved. *ts the steering column module failed two days after the vehicle was purchased. as a result there were no wipers, horn turn signals or cruise control. there were six attempts made to remove the foul smell from the vehicle, all unsuccessful. according to tsb #24-013-05 dated august aug 4, 2005 the cause of the odor was due to condensation forming around the a/c cooling coil which resulted in bacteria and fungi growth. the consumer wants the manufacturer to buy back the vehicle. *nm | |||
