Hello everyone,
Some earlier postings, and the dealer have both said a broken blend door
is the cause of my climate control problem, i.e., lots of heat under all
settings except Max Air.
I wonder though... I've noticed that the engine temp gauge is never
getting up to the "normal" point that it used to go to. Could it be
that a faulty thermostat (stuck open) is the cause of the climate
control problem?
Any ideas here as to what's happening?

An open thermostat would cause less heat, not more, and would have no
effect on settings for the heater / air conditioner. If the
thermostat is stuck open, you should replace it as it is not good for
the engine to run constantly at low temperatures.

Still sounds like the blend door. You may also have a faulty thermostat.
