Wait a minute,

I had a Mitsubushy (imported for dodge) Challenger with 155k miles at
retirement and I had to replace the fan motor twice in the beast.
Luckily it was behind the glove box and only a couple hours job.
BUT the damn thing cost $120 from the dealer only.

Oh yeah, it did conveniently fail during the coldest Boston winter
the first time.

Quit picking on our beloved Vanagons!
