Very hot inside the car

Hi all,

Whenever I drive on a freeway at speeds 80-90mph, in 10-15 mins it gets really hot inside the car (outside temp ~65 F), and the hot air is coming mostly underneath where the pedals are, I can feel my feet burning. The thing is that engine temp is OK (according to sensor).

I doubt that its normal, what can be the cause of it and how to avoid it?

Thanks!

ok i have somewhat the same problem and i think i figured it out.. what i did is right under the button for the face vent to work theres the button for i think its fresh air or somehting, try turning that on and i think u will notice that less if any air comes in also put the temp at cold thats what i do and i havent felt any hot air come in anymore so worked for me. Good luck

same thing happens to me ....idk if you have the digital climate control or not but try this

turn on the recirculate air button....and it will shut off..

with my digital control its weird....even if i have it off air still comes through on my feet as well so then i turned down the temp **** without the air being on ...then i put the air on and the temp was lower onnteh screen

so apparently i can change the tempature of teh air coming onto my feet when the air conditioner is off, i jsut turn the ****.......or to shut it off completely just press the recirculate air button
