The heater core is working and the bend door actuators are working but the heat only works on the driver side and not the passenger side. I've seen many forums of people saying the same things about 2012-2014 models. This seems to be a big issue with this car. It is winter now and only half the heat works, as well as only half the defroster as well. The car only has 105K miles on it and I've had no issues till this and other recalls. Dodge should recall these as it's a issue with many Avenger models. The vehicle does it just idling in a park spot or driving. Not sure if it's defective actuator bending doors or the heater core itself?! plz look further into this and hopefully this issue can be considered for a recall.
: "window defrost and passenger heat /air. While either in motion or while driving, no heated air exits the passenger side of the windshield defroster, nor the passenger window defrost, lower and center console vents. Heated air only exits the driver's side windshield and driver's side dash vents. Problem persists through all cabin air modes, and circulations. This safety issue effects visibility and passenger safety by failing to defrost/defog windows and keeping cabin tempuratures near or below freezing during cold weather (blowing cold air into the cabin)." Does not matter if vehicle is moving or parked.
