Anyone have problems with a squeeky noise coming from the glove compartment area on the passenger side? Definitely something mechanical because I can hear it when stopped at a light.
It might be something with the AC....seems to have gotten worse now that temps are back up in the 80's-90's here in Phoenix.

Yep, I have the same issue on my '05. The HVAC fan seems to be the culprit. All I have to do is turn it up or down and it goes away. Definitely more noticeable in warmer weather.
I haven't even checked to see what effort is involved with replacement.

My understanding is that the replacement of this fan isn't a really big deal. I don't think it's too difficult or too expensive (relatively speaking, of course).

Compared to an engine transplant, this is a simple task.

It hasn't bothered me enough to look into it but I may have to do it this summer.
Depending on the fan's orientation, it may be easy........ I'd hate to the heater core....

Be a bit careful with the mobile app - it is very battery and bandwidth thirsty if you are on a limited bandwidth plan. Make sure you actually quit/close the app rather than leaving it in the background. Also the click through ads are a bit of a pain (if you manage to hit one accidentally), and I understand they can end up enrolling you in push SMS services at quite some cost.
