Q: When I turn on the heat or a/c in my vehicle the air blowing out of my front passenger side is not registering so it blows out col

asked by on October 19, 2017

The air that comes out of the front passenger side vents is not the temp I have set in my vehicle. It has been cold at night here so I would turn the heat on and the vents on my front passenger side would blow out cold air. Of it's hot during the day I'll turn the air conditioning on and the front passenger side will blow out a warm air. This issue is isolated to just the front passenger side. The driver side and the vents in the back all blow out the right air. How do I fix this?
