Climate Control Resets to 67 ???

Ok the last few weeks i thought i have been going crazy but now i know its just my car being stoopid.

Ill drive somewhere with the air or heat on, park, and sometimes i come back to the car to find the climate control set to 67 on floor and vent.

Its no big problem, but i dont want the thing to mess up any further.

Anyone else have this or a similar problem?
Anyone have any ideas?

Hmm...never had this problem. Mine always stays where it should. Maybe its a wiring issue.

I haven't really noticed it going back by itself. I usually see it different after taking the car to the dealer or parking in a lot, but I figured it was just them changing it.

Hasn't happened to me..but when I have the climate control on and then I turn it off, a slight breeze of air still comes through the vents at whatever temperature it was set on constantly...that annoys the hell out of me.

This happens when you have it on Auto climate and then turn it off right? That's because it doesn't close the outside vents. I think if you change the mode to circulate air internally first, then turn it off it should stop.

dammmn, i want the reset to 69 mod instead of my ghetto reset to 67 blows from pannel and floor with the fan on the 2nd speed.
It did it again today to me.

I think you get the temp diffrent when you take it to the dealer because they unhook your battery, and the climate control resets to 75

sounds a bit like a radio when u got it hooked up wrong. u turn the car off and the clock goes back to 12:00. did anyone with the problem do anything with the radio or fog lights. if so i would check for wires or a fuse.

Sometimes when I turn the fan speed knob to one certain notch, mine goes to 20, sets to recycle on and the fan blows AC wide open.
