Does the 2002 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab have a cabin air filter? Interior is getting a funky smell when the AC turns on. If no filter, is there a way to clear the air. I love this site

I an sorry but this car is not equipped with a factory-installed cabin air filter.

Some vehicle operators may experience a musty odor from the A/C system, primarily at start up in hot and humid climates. This odor may be the result of microbial growth on the cooling coil. During normal A/C system operation, condensation forms in and around the A/C cooling coil. When airborne pollutants mix with this condensation, bacteria and fungi growth begins and odor results.
