Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Have had the heater resister replaced twice and the blower motor once. when going to a professional mechanic to have a third resister installed (less than a month after the second and 13 months after the first replacement), he said that water was leaking down through the windshield into the blower motor, melted a 30 amp fuse and shorted out the resistor. the mechanic said this could have caused a fire under the dashboard of the car. the blower motor encasement was drenched with water. *nm
