I have an unresolved issue with my heat. The heat comes out warm (normal) on the passenger side and cold on the driver side as though it is stuck in dual mode. The heat is set to the maximum temperature on both sides.
To temporary fix this problem I pull over and do a warm reset. I turn the vehicle off hit the lock button on the key fob. I sit and wait until a minute after the cube goes off (drive selector) and I restart the vehicle, the heat then works normal on both sides. This can happen several times in the course of a day.
The dealer replaced the HVAC Module with the flash-able version and nothing has changed. The problem is that after several resets the heat works fine so the dealer assumes the problem is fixed. During the normal course of driving, usually a day, it goes back to the original complaint.
When I took it back to the dealer they replaced the PTC Thermostat, filled and bled the cooling system. They road tested the vehicle twice and the heat works fine. Again, when I pick up the vehicle within a day or so it goes back to the original problem, cold air on the driver’s side and heat on the passenger side. A warm reset gives me a temporary fix. If anyone knows of a permanent fix for this problem please let me know.
