Some kind of air door or duct broke under the dash. It cost me $1500.00 to get it fixed by Ford. They had to take the whole dash out to fix it. I wonder why something like this would break for no reason at all. The car is not that old

The blending door pin, which is molded onto the heater, broke. The pin is inexpensive, but since it is molded onto the heater, the entire heater has to be replaced. Since the heater needs to be replaced, the entire dashboard has to come out. The estimate to repair a 49 cent piece - $1500.00.

I have a clicking in my heater and I have been told that they have to remove the dash board to fix a $15 plastic part with minimum 5 hours of labor. Who the hell designs these things???? Apparently this is a common problem.
