good mileage but still a POS

I never would have bought this car myself but my wife co-signed for her brother to buy this car from Kia Autosport in Pensacola, FL.(Never do business with these people. They are every cliche' you've ever heard about used car salesman.)

He stopped paying so I took the car to use as an "airporter" in CVG. At 52k the fan switch has quit working and can not be accessed by me for replacement. I've got no fan, no A/C and no choice, I will have to take it to the dealer to get the switch and probably the fan resistor replaced. $20 in parts and probably $300 in labor. What a POS!

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices, Local junkyard, the AC cluster should be less than $20, and the blower motor resistor should be less than $10,at 52K it may be under the 60K warranty what year is it.
