White dust coming from AC vents?

I purchased my coach in Texas and have noticed a mildew oder in front of coach. I also have a white "dust" that seems to be blowing out of vents. Has anyone had an issue like this?

Mike, I have read several posts on this issue over the years. It has also happen to me. It is from the manufacturing process. It will eventually go away. Craig

Craig,
The white dust is coming from the front dash ac vents. It is not the "snow" coming from ceiling vents. In a search I did, this was an issue in toyota cars for a while.

We've had it in our new Georgetown also. It's about gone now, though.

Lots of dust & debris from the AC ducts when I picked up my new 2015 Dynamax DX3-37RB. I had to fly to a different state to take delivery and of course, did NOT bring a vacuum cleaner with me. Would it have been so difficult for the factory (or even the dealership) to have blown and / or vacuumed out the ductwork?

I've got a 2010 and get the white dust every time I turn the dash vents on. The first owner only put 5000miles on it though so it might explain why if it's left over from the manufacturing process. I hope it's all gone soon!
