An interior air vent grille (deflector) is a component of the vehicle HVAC system designed to direct airflow inside the cabin. It allows adjustment of airflow direction and intensity, improving driver and passenger comfort.

Air vents are installed on the dashboard, center console, doors, or rear section of the cabin. Depending on the vehicle, they may include adjustable louvers, decorative frames, illumination, or airflow control mechanisms.

A damaged vent may have broken louvers, cracked housing, worn mounts, stuck adjustment mechanism, or poor fit in the dashboard. Faulty vents reduce airflow control and affect the interior appearance.
