Dealer says both situations are design problems from Chrysler and can't be fixed. They suggested contacting Chrysler. He says if enough people do, they might address it. Anybody having same problem or am I getting snowed in Myrtle Beach?

Thanks

Okay, I gotta tell you that your definition of a cold morning is much different than mine. I live up here on the Canadian Prairies where it was about -35° C or -31° F a couple of days ago when I got up to go to work. I haven't even mentioned the wind chill...

Anyway, I digress...if I'm not mistaken you can't use recirculated air when the defroster is on. You have to use the outside air so that it moves through the air conditioner to take the humidity out of the air that you blow on the windshield, otherwise it would frost up even more.

BTW, I only take my '05 Vert maybe once a week because I have another car, but it has a great heater, works well up here in the cold winter. I was very impressed with it.
