No heat or A/C to floor.

I bought a early 03' & always had cold feet & thought it was just a design flaw because I could hear lots of air & barely feel it on my feet. I still remember taking my shoes off and putting my feet up on the dash vents to warm them up. (Speeking of dash vents -- is it my imagination or is there one less vent opening now on the 04's?) - but I will tell you after getting my 04' the air blows very strong to the floor & no more 'cold feet & hot face anymore'. Feet are toasty now. I'm glad it was'nt a design flaw.

If I hadn't got the new truck I never would of questioned the lack of floor heat - surely you would think that DC would fix the problem if you didn't know it was a problem & you didn't discover it until after the 36k bumper to bumper.



BTW both trucks have the duel climate controls.



Now if they can just get the 'dial a drive' working. On day I'll have heat on my feet AND 4 wheel drive - that would be great. (replaced module & still notta)

I was just quoted $700 for this TSB mine is out of warrenty.

Warranty only pays 3. 2 hours the dealer is charging 6. 5 does this sound right?

NO the time allowed dosent sound correct. Chiltons time etc. is 130% time factory time. SO 4. 2 or so is the CORRECT labor time. I never bought Chilton or Motors time guides. Their always %130 of FACTORY TIME. Even 4. 5 would be ok. BUT 6. 5 is NOT. Ask them to EXPLAIN the TIME and where THEY came up with it. See if it SHOWS if ac ect has to be discharged and recharged ect. BUT if FACTORY is 3. 2 the a NON FACTORY TIME GUIDE WOULD BE THAT TIMES 130% and ANY TIME IN CHILTONS CAN BE CHECKED BY FACTORY TIME AND ITS THAT ALOMOST EVERY TIME TO A . 1

Also depends ON HOW LONG out of warranty. I would CALL D. C. 1800-992-1997 and DISCUSS this with them as its a KNOWN problem and a TSB on it and ask for ASSISTANCE. Just my 02 worth.
