It's at the dealership and they needed a west coast service rep to figure out the problem - anitfungal coating on the A/C evaporator that can dry out and flake off creating the white dust.
Been sucking this stuff in for 4 months with my family, car is in the shop for 1 week, and they claim there might be squeeks after they re-assemble as the entire dash has to come off to access the evaporator. Ugh. They better fix this right.
Just a note in case others are experiencing this.

Very interesting. We live in the same county, and I dont have this issue. Perhaps something happened with yours specifically?
