I have an 02 PT Cruiser.

The Defrost WILL NOT stay in the Defrost position. If I manually hold it in the defrost position nothing comes out of the vents. If I let go of the switch is rotates counter clockwise by itself. all other positions work just fine, but no good to me in -30 weather I have NO Defrost.

Anyone know what's up?

 

I talked to a Chrysler dealer about this and they informed me that it would be a minimum of 5 hours labor to fix this!

Time to trade it in and buy an import - No wonder US automakers are going under.

I've had it!

 

i would think it be some blend door problem. and yes it probably will take that long to pull the dash out if needed.

 

Once again the customer gets shafted by poor quality - Import here I come!
