You have a leak in the vacuum system for the vents. Either the supply line is leaking, the vacuum canister in the fender well or the vacuum switch in the dash is the problem.

either there is a vaccum leak as mentioned above or the one way check valve is bad out under the hood by the evaporator lines...it's sort of a funky looking black thing attached to hard plastic lines
