Air conditioning and or heater blows air inside heating cooling system but doors to direct it to its destination do not open, defroster and heating system does not work, ice and snow block widow vision. Repairs have been fruitless. This situation began at the same time as the recall on it and has persisted since 2009. My latest trip for repairs have also proved fruitless and now have to pay a fee for repairs that do not work.
