If your Exhaust tip is bigger than your cylinder bore, you are a Ricer!

Yeah take it back ASAP and get that heat fixed, dont even bother trying to fix it your self, if you break ANYTHING you will void your 30 day warranty.

Welcome aboard. Keep us posted on the heat thing, I bet it is an under-dash actuator motor. You don't want to go there...
