On a hot summer day, I got into the car and tried to turn the AC on and the rear was working fine, but the front wouldn't blow at all. Van was purchased passed off as a demo, though I've found out since then it couldn't have been with $25,000 miles on it. Needless to say there was no warranty, and dealership wanted far to much $$$ just to look at it. After driving for a year with no front AC, my husband finally investigated and found the problem with the switch. We replaced it and it worked for a couple months before going out again. Bought new switch at dealership, which was designed a bit differently than the previous one. We suspect they realized it was a design flaw and changed it. It has worked fine since then. I suppose two $30 switches isn't too terribly bad to have to pay for a working AC, but still a pain to have to change out twice on what I would consider a reasonably new car.
