Recall Remedy

The instrument cluster control module will be reprogrammed with a higher temperature setting and the defrost and defog ductwork will be secured to the louver(s). Additionally, the ductwork will be moved as far back as possible from the control module. The remedied component will have a different software version that is visible on the information screen.
