There is a vent for my defroster/heater/air conditioner-on top of the dash--that does not work. I have a friend, that has the same model car. She too has the same problem. It seems like a defect. My windshield keeps icing up and gets foggy.

While driving at any speed heater did not work. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, and heater was replaced. Also, on two different occasions dealer replaced wiring harness and connection wires. On another occasion entire brake light assembly was replaced along with the sockets. In all, vehicle had been to the dealer six times in seven months.
