Settings 1 and 2 don't work, same as everyone else. PIECE OF CRAP, never buying GM again.
- Jonathon H., Kansas City, MO, US
I bought the car with about 36,000 miles, shortly after, blower wouldnt work on 1st or 2nd setting. now at about 90,000 miles blower will only work on highest setting. I am sure just a matter of time before it goes out completley

the fan doesnt work on #1 and #2 what the hell is that all about. Either you freeze or overheat they need to do something about this.
- Tia G., Upper Marlboro, MD, US
The AC or heater works only on setting 3 or higher, 1 and 2 just don't blow any air. Not such a big deal but kind of annoying.

First two settings on blower fan stopped working
- Tom B., Hudson, WI, US
Blower motor fan control settings #1 and #2 are non-functional.. Definently a GM & Delphi defect which they are aware of and should fix at no cost to the consumer. My son and I bought new 2000 Malibu's and both have experienced this problem at about 40000?? miles plus.
- Stephen M., Eaton Rapids, MI, US
same problem on FAN. no fan for settings 1,2. all other work ok. A/C recycle button would toggle itself off to vent after a few minutes.
- Chris D., Los Angeles, CA, US
THE FAN DOESN'T WORK ON THE 1 OR 2 SETTINGS. THERE IS A RELAY PACK THAT IS BETWEEN THE SWITCH AND THE FAN. THE RESISTORS THAT CONTROL THE ONE AND TWO SETTING OVERHEAT AND FAIL. YOU CAN GO TO RADIOSHACK AND GET THE RESISTOR AND SOLDER THEM. I HAD THAT PROBLEM WHEN I BOUGHT MY NIGHTMARE AND HAD THE DEALER FIX IT.
- Mike S., Corona, NY, US
myself and at least two other friends of mine can't get the heat or a/c to work until the 3rd setting.
- leahjane, Buffalo, NY, US
THE AIR CONDITIONER WORKS ONLY ON NUMBER 3. ALL IN ALL I'M SORRY THAT I BOUGHT THE CAR. IT WAS NEW AND FOR A NEW CAR I HAD TO MANY PROBLEMS. I DON'T DRIVE THE CAR THAT MUCH . I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR 3 YRS.
- Sandra D., Bronx, NY, US
Just one of many other problems; replaced the resistor pack 3 times; yes I checked current draw of the fan and it's not excessive.
