This isn't a good time to not have a heater (SW PA). When I got in my
car today, and turned on the heater, the fan never came on. I can hear
a faint click from around the glove box area, but no fan. Also when I
tried the AC buttons, they never lit up. All the other buttons in the
heater control area seem to be ok.

I checked fuses and they seems to be ok. Could the fan have died?
Would this still be covered under warranty? (42,000 miles)

I had quite the same problem, does the fan works in the maximun speed?
If it works, it is the heater resistance.

No, fan doesn't work at any position. I can hear a slight click sound
from the fan when I turn the switch on (the click comes from behind
the glove box area)

Basic warranty is 5 years/60,000 miles. Unless it’s a blown fuse or
something similar, it should be covered by your warranty. Take it in
for warranty service

Thanks. I'll give them a call. Have them also check out that pesky
Check Engine light (that this is a pain, it's always coming on)
