Malibu 4-cyl

  • 85,000 miles
Blend door stuck on recirculate resulting in interior moisture and fogging/ heavy icing of interior windows-no visiblity requiring constant scraping/wiping. Fresh air and recirc. Lights do work. Lights on but no one home. An antifreeze/ heater core leak. Exterior vents below windshield atop firewall drawing in no air. Mechanic says it might be heater control module. But might means an expensive fix if its the problem.
