Are there any common places where the A/C and ventilation ducting commonly comes apart?
I was driving down a bit of rough road (I-405 South, just past the Sepulveda Pass for those that are familiar with LA Area freeways) when I noticed that the air had stopped coming out of the dash vents. I can still hear the fan running, and the sound changes as usual when selecting different fan speeds. I get a general sense of cool air in the dash area, but it's definitely NOT coming out of the vents. The air was flowing normally earlier in the drive, so it's some kind of fairly sudden failure.
My guess is that something fell apart in the duct work, causing the air to leak out behind the dash. I'm wondering if there is a common place this happens. I'm hoping all of you off-roaders will have a bunch of experience with rough roads and will be able to help out a city-bound cousin.
I haven't had a chance to do any troubleshooting yet, so any tips would be greatly appreciated.
