Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	My 2014 jeep cherokee does not automatically increase the air temperature when the front windshield defroster has been engaged. Instead, the climate control continues to direct air to the windshield that is at the same temperature setting that the driver has set for cabin temperature. Result, no defogging or defrosting action. This is potentially very dangerous while driving in weather conditions that case a sudden or unexpected fogging of the windshield, blocking or obscuring the driver? S vision. My chrysler dealer stated this was normal and that the driver has to manually increase the air temperature control to high. This was not printed in the owners manual. Such action adds to the distraction of the driver having to manipulate the temperature controls in addition to the loss of visibility due to the fogging condition. As you might expect, the driver has to return the cabin temperature controls back down to a normal when turning off the front windshield defroster. This should be an easy fix in the vehicle's climate control software.
