My vehicle only blows hot air on the driver side. This seems to be a common issue among many others with the same vehicle. We tried to flush the heater core and it did nothing.

The heater on the passenger side stopped blowing warm air when the car is either idling or on the freeway. Even with putting it full blast there's not heat coming out of the passenger side, just the drivers side.

Passenger side blowing no heat while driving or stationary

- Union Grove, WI, USA

In my car there is no heat. At first it started with just heat blowing from the driver side and slowly the heat completely stopped working. The car makes a loud ticking noise behind the glove compartment when the heat is turned on, and even when it is just sitting in the parking lot off.

Heater blows out cold, has plenty of antifreeze but there is a small leak somewhere actuated on left side makes clicking sound. Can't figure out why no heat and it's cold here.

Passenger side heat not working. Only blowing out cold air. Even when vehicle is warmed

- Noblesville, IN, USA

The drivers side blows hot air when I set the knob on hot but the passenger side only blows cold air and won't heat up. Its terrible for in the winter only half of the windshield gets unlogged and the other half I can't see out of. Ive read somewhere that this is a defect in the car somewhere and Dodge should have to cover the costs for fixing them.

Heat blows out drivers side vent. But blows cold out passenger side vent. Have changed thermostat and actuator doors. Have flushed system several times and still no change. Garage estimated me 1400 to change out radiator and heater core but not guaranteed this will help matter. Apparently this is a common issue with the 2012 Dodge Ram.

Heat only works on drivers side part of the time. Have found out this is a manufacturer defect with the heater core. With no heat on passenger side I can not drive my car in the winter. I can not defrost my windshield due to no heat and if I am driving in snow or freezing wet temperatures my windshield w freezes up. This has been a problem I have had since I bought the car in 2018. Took it to the dealership I bought it from and found out it was a manufacturer defect. Filed a complaint with Dodge and was told I would have to bring the car in for diagnostic which would be charged to see what is wrong with it. Have read that many Avenger owners are having the same problems with no real fix by Dodge. It is a heater core defect. Which is over a $1,000 fix that I should not have to pay for due to it being a defect from the manufacturer.

When we turn on the heater in the car and doesn't matter which setting we get warm air on the driver side and cold on the passenger side.

- Bismarck, ND, USA

No heat on passenger side. Doesnt matter if the car is moving or not. Doesnt allow defrosting very well.

Active head rest deployed without being in an accident. The plastic that holds the retaining pin broke causing the head rest to deploy

Dodge left residual machining debris in the Avenger engine blocks that flows with coolant into the heater core and radiator causing the heater core to clog up and blocks heat to passenger side in the winter causing unsafe or unfit to operate in cold weather.

No heat or defroster on the passenger side of vehicle

- Somers, NY, USA

Heater core clogged, causing windows to fog up in cold conditions, eventually leading to heater core and coolant system failure due to overpressure, resulting in engine overheating.

Dodge left residual machining debris in the Avenger engine blocks that flows with coolant into the heater core and radiator causing the heater core to clog up and blocks heat to passenger side in the winter causing unsafe or unfit to operate in cold weather. I've had my Avenger in Dodge dealership where they confirm my heater core is blocked. It costs over 2K to fix this issue caused by defective or lack of Dodge factory engine inspections. I've spoken to fca the Dodge parent company and their answer is we should've had extended warranty even though I'm within the mileage for the factory warranty but out of amount of years coverage. My Avenger had extended warranty from an outside source but that company will not cover Dodge created malfunctions. The attached info shows my Avenger at the Dodge dealership on 03-06-2019. I also had it serviced in wichita at pr autoglass and auto services just prior to bringing it to Dodge dealership. Pr autoglass and services stated it is the heater core and that the problem cannot be flushed out as it has accumulated in the heater core blocking it from being professionally flushed. The residue was also evident in the radiator but flushing did remove that the best we can tell. Dodge has a known issue with having left this debris in the engine blocks during the machining processes on Avengers.

Ac works on both sides. When heat is turned, heat only works on drivers side. Cold air blows on passengers side and on passenger side defrost. Driver side heat and defroster has no issues.
