This is not the first time this has happened, but I was driving home last night (Philly to MD approx. 65-100mph) and I was feeling cold air blowing directly on me from what seemed like the passengers side. I felt around with my hand and noticed the air blowing in from under the instrument panel . I stuffed my hat between the middle console where the gear shift is (A/T) and the instrument panel and it helped some, but I could still feel cold air blowing in on me.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? Did somebody bust a cap in my firewall?

 

i feel cold air around my shifter in the winter time too

 

probably just one of the grommets in the firewall came loose or something

 

The air is rushing in tho. It's not like a little draft...if you're driving at a decent speed, its like a window is 1/4 open. If I don't turn the heat to level 2, the whole car is freezing.

 

is your car still under warranty? could have the dealer check it out

 

oh, mine's a draft....no blowing air...lol that would suck...
