problem #1

Jul 182012

HHR LT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 29,000 miles

OK, bought this while still under warranty and low miles. Had this problem Repeatedly, took to dealer over 5 times for the same problem.. They replaced carpets, tore thing apart Supposedly ... Finally had to get a Lemon Lawyer to get a settlement out of them since I had taken it over 5 times for the same problem and they couldn't fix ..

Truthfully the guys at my Oil Change place figured it out for me, the drain to the ac gets clogged, its a design flaw .. Then the fan starts filling up with water and you will turn a corner and hear the fan sloshing and water-logged, I even had water like a sprinkler coming out the ac vents.. You turn a corner and water pours out under the dash and pools into the floorboard carpets, thay stink after they get that wet.. No permanent fix that I have found, if I hear it slosh at all I go to the oil change place and they put it up on the rack and get a air hose with a long thin extension, shove it up in the drain hole, blast it with air, and jump back before the downpour.. ... This is a common problem, think the dealership was just taking the warranty money not fixing the problem..
