The last couple of weeks I've noticed that my car gets unbearably hot with the heat on. Due to the weather I've been keeping the defroster on, but even in auto mode it gets really hot. I've tried turning down the middle dial for temp to 60 but still too hot. It will take a while to get too hot, so on most short drives it isn't noticeable. However, if I drive for more than 20-30 minutes it will become a problem. I've had to open the windows or even turn off the heat completely at times in below freezing temps outside to cool off.

Any ideas? My warranty is up in April, so I'll probably bring it to the dealer before then to get it checked out.

BTW, I have a base/sport (not touring).
