Cabin Air Filter / Purifier: Service and Repair

Cabin Air Filter

Your vehicle may be equipped with a passenger compartment air filter. It is located on the passenger side at the base of the windshield and can be accessed through a removable panel under the hood of the vehicle.

The filter traps most of the pollen from air entering the module. Like your engine's air cleaner/filter, it may need to be changed periodically.

To change the passenger compartment air filter, use the following steps:

1) Raise the hood.







2) Peel back the hood weatherstrip from the passenger's side of the vehicle halfway to center.






3) Remove the three clips and the access panel.






4) Remove the old passenger compartment air filter.
5) Then reverse the steps to install the new air filter.
