Weak airflow from center dash vents

I have an 07 MDX I bought back in October. This summer is the first time I've run the A/C and I've noticed that the volume of air coming from the center vents is kind of weak, at least, to other cars I've had before. Other Gen 2 MDXers, is this normal? Other Hondas/Acuras I've had blow plenty of air.

I've tried turning the AC all the way down and then turning up the fan manually all the way up, but I still don't get a lot of air. The rear vents blow like a hurricane, but even turning them off doesn't make a difference. Any ideas?

I have an 08 and I don't have this problem. Checking the cabin filter is a good idea.

It's a 2007, so it's still under warranty, correct? I'd take it to the dealer and let them figure it out. Might be a fan or something specific to those particular vents.

we had the exact same issue with my dad's 08 MDX. it was definitely the cabin filter for his vehicle.

if the dealer tries to charge you $100 or something crazy, just buy the filter from the parts department and do it yourself. it's really easy to replace, right behind your glove compartment.
