Default HVAC and or blower motor

So jumped in my truck this morning to take it for a spin since it's been in the garage from when I drove it last to the dealer and I had the heat on floor but seem'd to be really hot in my face area.. so I felt down by the pedals and there was not really any air blowing so I cranked it on high and same thing very little air.. it's all coming from the defrost vents on the dash....

So i'm guessing that little flap that directs the air has shit and bit it...

Any other things you guys can think of?

When I had my truck, I got quoted at several hundred I believe. They said they had to take the entire dash out.

My blend door on my 04 broke the day after I bought it. The dealer took care of it so I don't know what it cost. They did have the truck for like 2 or 3 days though...

Well I just talked with one of the tech's at the dealer and he says he does not think it's the blend door since every other setting is working.. the defrost works front vents everything but the floor..

So i'm taking it in next week to have them look at it.

i was going to say this but you already have the answer ... since i've replaced 2 i know the issues haha when your blend door goes bad you have barely any air coming out of any of the vents and since you have some that blow hard that's def not it ... but funny that this comes up as my truck just started doing this as well
