Today - during a 10 hour drive - almost all of the cool air stopped coming out of the air vents. The fan(s) was working - could hear it working loudly. The small amount of air that was coming out was cool enough, it was the volume of air that was inadequate. I tried turning it on "MAX" - all that did was make a lot of noise with the fan(s) whirring loudly behind the dashboard, but very little coming out of the vents. Tried reseting the automatic settings in the climate control menu. Nothing changed. Then stopped the car, turned off the engine and restarted it - it worked a bit better for 15 miles and then slwoly it went back to a hot cabin with small (inadequate) amount of cool air coming out of the vents. Anyone else had (or heard) of a similar problem?

I had the exact problem. I could not get it to happen again since it only happened during a long ride. Dealer looked at it but could not duplicate the problem.
