Q: My car only blows out hot air, can't switch over to A/c or vent. What could be wrong?
The heater and defrost work fine, but with the warmer temps in New England tried to shut off the heat and open the vents and still got heat. Also tried the air and still got heat.
My car has 67000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
