Sounds like you have the same problem as I do. Its caused by the stepper motor snapping, they are made out of plastic and are known to eventually break. they control where the vents open to whether its your head or feet or windscreen.

Do you hear a clicking sound when you try to adjust the vent?

Or hopefully you just need a reset which could help readjust it. If you turn on your blower and press and hold The circulation button and your front window demister until they start flashing back and forth.

i just tried it for about 3 minutes before i had to get back into class- it didn't seem like it fixed the bottom vent from working but i do feel like the top vents it blowing out more air then before.
