Take it to the dealership. They replaced mine in my 2009 R/T Classic 4 times in 5 years. Always covered under warranty because the first one went out when the car was only a year and a half old. The last one went out in June of this year and Chrysler covered it as a courtesy.
Recall? on blend door actuator?

I had a blend door go out at around 29,000 miles. I drove two hours down to the dealership and they could immediately hear the blend door trying to do it's thing. After a day of techs trying to reset the thing through the computer system, they finally gave up and said it needed to be replaced. I went down a week later and dropped the car off. They called me the next day and said that the door was fixed. Evidently they didn't have to take out the entire dash as our dashes are somewhat modular, and they have a lot of experience replacing these things. However, they did have to replace the entire air box under the dash.
I do think they screwed something up though. Either something is unhooked or a tool was left in my dashboard. When I take a turn, I can hear something sliding around under the dash. I thought it was something in the glove box and ignored it. One day, months later, I had taken everything out of the glove box...noise is still there
Kind of annoying at first, but a barely notice it any more. Maybe one of these days I'll go fishing around up there and see what is going on.
