Has been working fine then while i was driving I turned on the a/c and no air blowing. The buttons all light up and work just no air blowing. I then returned home went and started it about an hour later and was working fine. Later in the day turned on car and air not working again, heat or a/c.
Blower motor? Something electrical ...resistor or fuse? Just my luck, bought the car two weeks ago used, came with a 3000/3mo powertrain warranty but doubt it covers this issue.

What you need to do is check to see if there is power to the blower motor when it isn't working. If there is, the motor is bad. If there isn't, then you need to work back through the wiring to the resister, relay and back to the switch. Also, I hate to say it but it isn't part of a powertrain warranty. Since it is only two weeks, I would call them and see if they will eat at least part of the cost to repair it.
