Windstar Limited V6
We have never had a problem with the climate control on our Windstar until December of 08 and of course we are having this problem during one of the coldest winters that our area has seen in years! The front & rear vents blow cold air while there is a slapping noise coming from the unit. It makes the noise whether or not the fan is engaged and only when the temperature is moved to heat. The noise persists for 10 or more minutes before something finally connects and warm air starts to blow. I have looked on several forums for Windstar complaints and it looks like it could be one of two things. One entry stated that they had the same problem which turned out to be the blend door which would cost in excess of $500 and 8 hours of labor. The other possible problem would be the actuator which is supposed to be a cheaper fix. I just pray that it's the latter as we have several other problems with this vehicle and it's not paid off yet! The vehicle is a comfortable ride and has had minor problems until now--why can't this stuff happen when it's still under warranty!
