Auto Climate Control Heat Airflow

[DesignFlaw06]

This is absolutely a first world problem. Had my first long drive over the weekend with my new toy. The weather was absolute garbage, but the truck did fine. The one issue I had was the amount of heat coming out near the pedals. My right foot was on fire and it just didn't feel like any of the heat was making it up higher than that. Maybe the rest of me felt cold due to the excessive heat on my foot. Just curious if anyone else experiences this or if there's something I'm missing.

Still figuring out the controls, but it was a whiteout drive across the state so my attention was on the road.

68 to 72 degrees set to auto and it works perfect year-round. You didn't mention any of the settings you had used.

You're right, I didn't. I had it set to Auto at 70 degrees.

Well, it's never blew that hot on my foot. It's always been comfortable.

I've experienced the same thing in my 2020 Laramie. On cold days, with climate set to Auto at 68-72 after about 30 mins the footwell continues to get hotter and the cabin gets cold from the cold air coming from the defrost vents in the dash. Seems like they should have blended the air with warm air for footwell and mid vents. Was wondering if anyone found a fix.
