The right blend door actuator failed at 5 years of ownership at around 45k miles. The right one controls the recirculation function of the A/C so I didn't have that function for over a year. Changing the part was fairly easy as you only need to remove the glove box, a wiring harness and two screws, but the left one which is equally prone to failure and that one is a pain in the a** to change as it's submerged above the pedals. Anyway, it's a DIY repair, and my suggestion is you not cheap out on the part, and buy the original one, as the ones from Amazon are a bet, they might work or not.
