The fan has four speed settings, 1 through 4. The fan appears to have stopped working on the lower two settings. Settings 3 and 4 operate as always. Has anyone encountered this? What is the solution?

My grandmother had a similar issue in her circa 2012 Ford Focus a few years ago. Fortunately, the fan speeds gave out JUST before the warranty expired, and the dealer repaired it. I'm not sure if that's a coincidence, or not. I'm also not sure if it was the selector switch, or the whole fan, that they replaced.
You need to replace the fan resistor which is regressively burning out. Autozone has them for sale. Or even Amazon.
