I own a 2010 Toyota Corolla S and when I have the air set to blow out onto the windshield, air still comes out the middle vents as well. I know this is not suppose to happen, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix this?

This would mean either the control is faulty or the diverter door inside the HVAC unit has failed. you can check the wiring/connectors at the back of the control unit. But if it's faulty, it'll have to be replaced. You'll need to remove the hvac unit to check the diverter door and it's control system.
