Blower motor stops working about every 1.5 years. It was initially reported as a blower motor recall and the dealer replaced it twice but it went out a 3rd time about 2.5 years ago. They searched for the problem after realizing they had replaced the blower motor twice but could not locate the defect, at which point they charged me over $300 for their efforts to locate the problem. They wanted to keep looking for the problem but I told them no, just put it back together that I wasn't going to pay them to search for their defect. I have since been told by someone who claimed to be a mechanic for Hyundai that it is a computer chip problem that requires them to pull a lot of things on the dash to replace the chip and it is not cheap. I have a mechanic that is trying to get the chip and install it for me but I won't know for certain that this is the problem until the chip is replaced. I have driven the car for about 2.5 years without heat or air conditioning but can't work when it rains because the windshield fogs up in the rain and I can't see. I also can't drive the car when I can't get the windshield cleared of ice. Now the engine is burning oil but there's no recall for that issue according to your website. The car now has 173,624 mile on it.
