The circuit board that regulates the temperature control does not work. This problem in the beginning was intermittent but we never reported it until some time between Jan. 2002 to present. They claim that the board is defective but it would cost us aroung $ $500 to be replaced. We believe that a car with less than 35000 miles should not have this problem.
