Unhappy blower out third year in a row

I have replaced the blower motor in my Dakota for the past two years. It's out again. I don't use the AC, so the thing was barely used. But it's out again. I am upset about this, as this has cost me close to $500.00 so far and I'm looking at another $200.00+. I have to drive 30 miles to work on the highways and cannot go without it in the winter. Maybe I'm just venting, but does anyone out there have a suggestion for me? This seems excessive to me.

Thanks,
Gayle

With new fans or junkyard ones I would never get a used fan they can be had new for about $40 or less

I know exactly what your problem is. I read a guide once about how the a/c drain tube leaks back into some of our cabs soaking the pass floorboard. Here's the guide. http://www.dakota-durango.com/forum/...d.php?t=148268

and this thread has a large picture of the drain tube (3rd post down) https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...nside-cab.html
