Obviously the HVAC is a major stuff up on the VF that can't be fixed easily? The HVAC on the VF seems to have a mind of its own. The dialled settings seem to have no relation to what comes out of the vents. Sometimes I have to turn mine up to 27 to get some heat to come out of it and other times it pumps out cold air for no reason. I can't understand how Holden went backwards on the VF. The VE HVAC worked well without the problems that the VF has. I can't understand why they didn't use the VE system that worked well and carry that over.
Obviously there is no easy fix on the VF, the car was released in 2013 and to date according to my dealer there is mountains of complaints about the HVAC. Even in car magazines they even write how it is a crap set up. I was talking to a member of the Highway patrol in my area and asked him what he thought of the VF and he said it was a great car except for the heating and air. Obviously it is a major design that can't be fixed easily otherwise you would have thought they would have solved it by at least the release of series 2.
I am of the opinion now that maybe Holden won't do anything now on it and we will just have to live with it. 3 years since release and no real fixes? Dealers just seem to do computer updates on the HVAC which don't do much.
Does anybody know anything else?
