What owners wrote
My truck has been blowing hot air when on cool. When it started doing it, I noticed sparks coming from what appeared to be my AC unit. This is a safety hazard. I believe that my actuator blend doors need to be replaced but do not know for sure.
Constant wind noise from hood hinge flaps and top windshield seal at 50 and above. Also driver door seal squeals. I repaired the flapping noises myself after the dealer tried 6 times and said it was my bug deflector. The door seal was replaced after 6 trips and is worse now than then. I repaired this as well as I could. They replaced 1 of 3 seals. After 6 visits for my goodyear tires (nothing found wrong again) they decide to replace them. It took 2 weeks to get tires and then they replaced 2.
