The air will not blow on settings one thru four. It will only blow on five (high). You can't change where it blows from either. It appears to be stuck on defrost? Needless to say in 100 degree weather you're are roasting.

I feel this should be a recall, and I should not have to pay to get it fixed..I feel if more then One person has the problem it should be looked at my the manufacture.. I know im not the only one who has this problem and I feel Chevrolet should step up and get the job done..

Except for a blown engine head gasket at 60,000 miles, and now the short in the blower motor resistor, the car has performed great.

Just another of the many little annoying issues I am having with my Impala. The switch for the fan in the AC/Heat control only works on the highest setting for some reason. It is a constant game of controlling the temperature to get it to the perfect level while it is blowing it at you at full blast. I don't understand how 4 out of 5 clicks on a knob can not work.

Level 1 of Heater and A/C does not work. Irritating that I have to start at Level 2. My car is either too hot or too cold. Never just right!

While on Christmas vacation out of state, my blower ceased to function on levels 1-4. I was stuck with only off, or 5. I'm about to order a new dual climate control assembly and see if that works.

Blower switch doesn't work on settings 1-4. Only level 5 works. The other 2 times settings 1-3 didn't work. This has caused me from $260 - $290 a pop. Does GM get a copy of this. Is there ever any resolution?

The air conditioner still blows out cold air. However, the air just slowly seeps out of all the top vents, the window vents, and the floor. I am unable to control where the air comes out. You turn the control switch and nothing happens. This really sucks in 100 degree Arkansas heat and humidity. It takes an unreasonable amount of time for the inside of the car to reach a level that can be considered cool.
