Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The resistor that allowed the blower motor to work the air conditioner /heater melted the wiring harness and the resistor itself, which at anytime could cause a fire on the passenger's side of the vehicle. this meant there was no air conditioning or heat for the automobile nor defroster system. the company was on a back order from what i was told by 1400 parts. the junk yards did not have this resistor, and after $180 at napa i was able to get one, and that was hard to find ,and i didn't know how long this one will last. after receiving the part the box contained a harness and resistor, the harness had about 10 plugging to where i believe i will have to tear the whole dashboard apart just to connect this harness. i believe this should be a recall for a fire hazard. and tell me why chrysler isn't selling this part.*ak |
