if under warrenty that is great - the blend box is under the dash and most times the dash board has to be competely removed to replace it. I found a shop up in Lebanon NH that has done so many of these they have their own short cuts that really cuts down on the labor in replacing these - for example I had an older jeep Grand Cherokee - they were hald the cost of anyone else in the labor area, because they knew how to dissamble the dash in a way as to not having to drop it piece by piece and every section. Was about a $1200 job instead of over $2400 as the book shows in hours for the repair

The "Blend door actuator was the issue, and replaced by Irwin at 'no charge', as car is still under warranty. They dd have to remove the dashboard, and took about 2 hours. They did an excellent job, kudos to Irwin Hyundai !
