    Rear Defroster Tab Issue

    My rear defroster tab came off. I bought one of those kits to fix it. The first crack at it didn't hold so I tried again. This time the supposedly conductive epoxy held. However, the current can't get through it. I had to use more of it the second time as the tab didn't seat all that well...

    Driver Side Rear View Mirror heating element replacement

    I've got a Platinum Care ESP but apparently the heating element in my driver side mirror isn't covered. Dealer wants $600 to replace and told me the part is $450 of that. This seems a bit excessive. Is it possible to replace just the heating element and if so where's a good place to source...

    Auto Climate Control on remote start misbehaving

    Can someone confirm that when they remote start their Expy in cold weather that the rear defroster comes on? I haven't done this since last year but I could swear it's supposed to do heated seats, heater steering wheel, front defroster, and rear / mirror defrosters. For some reason the rear /...

    Strange tranny behavior (I think).

    Does a code get thrown or is there some way for the dealer to see the lockup issue without being able to reproduce?

    Build date updates and issues.

    My tag says 3/18 and it is a 2018. Does that mean March of 2018 or does it mean March 18th?
