451 smart fortwo

I have 50,000 miles on my passion. The ventilating fan has not worked properly for about 30,000 miles. No warranty coverage. They want $350 plus labor to replace it. Smart knows of the problem as the dealer told me to "Kick" it to get it to run intermitently! Now it wont go at all. Anyone else had the problem? What's a better solution?

Replace it. is it worth the aggravation not to? Pick up your phone and call around to local parts stores for pricing to compare if you want. I know we're not all made of money but things do happen. I personally would much rather enjoy my drive than be upset about broken things. you might want to write to the folks at http://www.evilution.co.uk They might have a how to so that you can go at the work yourself. Good Luck.
