No heat
Since it has occurred over time there are three possibilities that could be the issue (also considering age of vehicle).
The first issue could be clogged heater core. To check this, place the heat on full. Start and run the vehicle until the coolant heats up. Feel the supply and return side hoses for the heater core as close to the engine firewall as possible. If one hose doesn't warm up, then there is little or no flow through the heater core inside the passenger compartment. You can attempt to fix this by removing the heater hoses and back-flushing the core with clear, cool water. Be careful about pressure though. Older cores are copper and can handle fairly high pressure. Newer cores are aluminum and plastic and can crack is overpressurized.
The second possible issue is that the heater blend door is not responding to the heater control knob. Some controls are cable (wire) connected, while newer models are vacuum motor controlled. You would need to observe the actuator mechanism to see if the blend door is responding to the control.
The third possibility is that the thermostat in the engine has slowly, over time, gotten itself stuck in the open position. This would keep the coolant from reaching operating temperature and reduce or eliminate any potential heat for the passenger compartment. If you have a temp gauge, check it to see if the coolant is reaching 180-195 degrees F. A quick check would be to feel the upper and lower radiator hoses after the car has been running a while. If the are not hot to the touch, you probably have a thermostat that needs replacement.

If you drive it with the air suspension not working and the air springs are deflated the shock of road driving can severely damage the other components of the system like control arms and bushings.
