The heat sent only to the floor is feeble. When the fan ispeed s brought to 50%, there is lots of noise in the dashboard. The noise makes me think that a piece of ductwork has become dislodged.
Air directed to dash and windshield is fine. The AM HD audio changes tone and seems to loose HD lock. In the NY metro area that is not acceptable. The audio quality changes and I find myself listening to the quality of the audio and not the content. The dealer disabled AM HD for me.

At startup - engaging the AC caused a loud noise. After about 30 seconds it went away and the fan picked up speed. Inspected at dealership - discovered that a filter or guard was missing so presumably something had gotten into the system and was clogging the fan.
Fuse F38 (5 amp) blew due to an improperly routed wiring harness that got pinched against transmission mount. F38 is to an "engine/transmission control module". Wiring harness repaired and re-routed. No problems since.
