Howdy,
I was looking through the NHTSA site at:
http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems
when I found this:
Service Bulletin Number: 24-04-97
Bulletin Sequence Number:
Date of Bulletin: 9704
NHTSA Item Number: SB051925
Make: DODGE TRUCK
Model: DAKOTA
Year: 1997
Component: HEATER:DEFROSTER:DEFOGGER AND VENTILATION
Summary: LOW HEATER PERFORMANCE DUE TO IMPROPERLY DIRECTED HEATER AIR FLOW. *TW
I think I will follow up with the dealer on this. I will also sit
in a few new Dakotas on the lot and listen to their heaters.
BTW, I could not find TSB 19-12-97 on the web, either at
www.alldata.com or the NHTSA site. This is the one that deals with
intermediate shafts on 97 and up Dakotas. Is there a way to
search for the actual TSBs on the web?
Drive Safe,
