It either could be the a/c control switches, or, a vacuum problem. The air vents are controlled by vacuum. Something that you might want to bring to the local Stealership or mechanic to look at.

Under the hood against the firewall. Have someone look at the actuator while you turn the air flow direction know on your a/c or sliding bar. The wheel sure turn freely left to right. If everything checks out there you may want to take it to an automotive shop that does a/c inspection. You'll pay twice the cost at the dealer. They will have to remove all the face and inspect the strings.
