| I own a 2004 mazd mpv van. when the transmission lever is moved to d for drive, the the air conditionin (a/c ) on/off swicth is hidden behind the lever no matter how what the driver seat settings may be. i have contacted mazda, but they have failed to provide any remedy for this problem. i strongly believe that this is a driving hazard as i have had a few close calls trying to turn the a/c on or off while driving. *ak | |||
