Foam from air exhaust
So I had my air set to high. Turned it off engine and when I turned it back on it blew hard as anticipated because of the sitting but this time all this little foam particles were pushed out. It came out from the vents along the mirror not the adjustable vents.

Any thoughts about how to change that out or check to see what happened?

Tons of posts on this topic. Try a search for "interior vent debris".

The heater/ac control doors are deteriorating. They are made out of, covered with that foam. After so many years they dry out and fall apart and blow out of your ac/heater vents

I believe that I answered your question 3 days ago. Most people live with it since its a pain to fix.
