2006 Honda Ridgeline visibility complaints

My 2006 honda ridgeline air conditioner blower started to only work intermittently in early september. I put off taking it to the dealership and it then stopped working completely within a day or two. At that point I took it in, the dealer said it was a bad transistor. They replaced the transistor and that did not fix the problem. They then took apart the dash and said the interior air filter was clogged ( I park under a tree in my driveway ) and due to that the blower motor burned up and melted the wiring. The dealership said it would cost $2200.00 to fix, my non-dealer, ex-honda mechanic said he though it was a faulty design or a faulty transistor and heard of others having similar problems. He did not think in any way the internal air filter idea had anything to due with the blower overheating. He recommended to call honda corp in torrance ca. The consequence it I do not have AC in 90 to 100 degree weather in the san francisco bay area in california. Due to the cost, I have yet to fix it, honda has done nothing and we are miserable in the heat.
For the second time on less then a year (despite repairs) the windshield wipers completely failed in heavy snow, disabling the vehicle.
Windshield stress crack. Starting point was upper passenger corner and propagated to center of wind screen. Dealer says it was a stone that caused the crack, there is no divot from a stone.
Rear driver's side door window will not move.
Total failure of windshield wipers during storm...wipers were never frozen to glass during the event.
