Default HVAC Controller from Auto and Truck Electronics

I am getting ready to replace my HVAC controller on my 2010.
I would like to get a remanufactured one.
I have read a lot of bad reviews about Auto and Truck Electronics. Are these founded?
Any positive or negative feedback is welcome.
Also, what other places remanufacture these units. If any.

link would help, to see if they are scam site or not from the beginning.

If this is them, then would find someone else,

Also, is problem just electric one that you could pull the board to solve a cold solder joint or popped out ribbon cable to start with?

Thank you for the reply. This is the kind of feedback that I was afraid of. This is the company I was referring to.
My unit will occasionally go blank but comes back after a short time. I was trying to get on top of it before a catastrophic failure.
Does anyone have another source for repair of these units.

I have problems with mine too and looked the same route.
when I replaced my radio, I tore mine apart and funny enough I did not see any cold solder points or broken solder points.
i reset my battery and have yet to have the issue come back.
i have not driven the car much since then, but I have heard of people resetting their batteries and fixing their problems with hvac blanking out.

I also had mine reset at the dealer when I was getting an oil change. I have not had issues since but I put it in winter storage a couple weeks after the reset.
I purchased a used one on ebay. ( supposedly working ) for $250. So, I'm not real anxious to tear it apart and risk damage. Now, my thinking is to wait and see how the reset works out.
