For past few months now I noticed that when I turn on my a/c or heater it ain't blowing a lot of air through vents. With even air set on high it's barely noticeable, and the back is a lot worse. Anyone had or have this same problem?

Does it sound like the blower motor is blowing harder when you adjust the setting? If it sounds the same in all settings you may have a bad switch or the unit may need to be flashed.

Since it is new take it in and have it checked out by the dealer.

Sounds like its blowing hard but it ain't. Nothing comes out the rear vents.

The only way I get the heat to flow to the rear is if I put it to the "feet". The other positions I can barely feel the heat in the back of the crew cab.

The rear vents won't blow as hard as the fronts, they are a lot more subtle.

My CC has two vents under the front seats and a center vent between the front two seats. I never checked but I always thought the ones under the seats blew the warm air and the center vents blew the cool air, I will have to check into this.

As stated earlier make sure your selector is pointed to the feet position and then check the under seat vents for heat or air movement.

Same thing happened twice on my 2006. It was the recirculation door that broke and was blocking the air flow. One time under warranty and the second time not.
