bobback Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Well, sort of. It just stopped blowing cold air; passenger side was blowing cold air but that quit blowing cold air too. Can't remember what service is thinking happened; something about something getting stuck, he said worst case they have to take out the dash. Keeping fingers crossed that they won't have to take out the dash. Can't get the car in till next Monday...man, that black interior is freak'n hot!

mjhpadi Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Sounds like the blend door may have broke...it's a fairly common problem with Ford. I know several people who have had it happen. We have had a problem with it in our Explorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobback Posted August 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Yep, blend door rings a bell. Know if the dash will have to come out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vernonator Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Happened on my 2004 F-150 as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I know it does on our Explorer...estimated repair cost...about $800.00 (for the Explorer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h1h0silver Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 What is blend door? My air system makes a ticking sound only upon startup of the car. Kind of like car tests the recirc damper a whole bunch or a leaf stuck in fan. Dealer says it's one of the 3 fans going bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bad servo or something behind the glove box. Warranty will cover it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h1h0silver Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I'm at 38500. No more warranty except power train. Which is covering my trans rebuild that is going on STILL... If you could ask your dealer that fixed the servo and message to me which part/s, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mmyr1chter Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Ahhh. My mileage is the same as yours, but I got the extended warranty so it was covered. That really sucks, cause you are jusssst outside the bumper to bumper. They sure know how to time those things dont they. Hopefully its not too pricey to get fixed.

The repair on my 2004 F-150 was around $500 if I recall correctly...but its been almost 3yrs ago so I'm a bit fuzzy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine just did the same thing today so I'll have to take it in under warranty next week. I noticed the driver's side started blowing warmer the other day now it just completely stopped blowing cold today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobback Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 The a/c condensor went bad. They said not a common issue in these, and was just a bad part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
