heater issue - cold draft

We did a road trip yesterday and my son complained of a cold draft on the floor in the passenger front seat area even with the heat on. Anyone run into this and have a solution? I seem to remember a similar thread a while back but maybe not on this forum.

In my '85 pick-up the 'door' for the fresh/recirulate came loose, so air from the out side blew onto the legs of the passanger. This inlet is right behind the glove box. The fix entailed taking the dash and air vents apart to access the maounting points for this 'door', a blanket for the passanger is a nice short term fix.
Good luck
Nathan

if its a '95, i have no idea. the only thing i can think is one of the "doors" for the heater is broken and is open so fresh air is coming in. (like growinseed said)
