2014 Jeep PATRIOT Visibility Wiper Problems, Complaints and Defects

Internal NHTSA #	10825066
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	PATRIOT
Model Year	2014
File date	09/02/16
Component	VISIBILITY/WIPER
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Northern minnesota - the side windows completely frost over making it impossible to see. I have to scrape the windows to see out at intersections. The windshield itself will only defrost 70%. I have to use either full defrost mode -- leaving my feet to freeze -- or alternate between 50/50 feet/defrost and full defrost. I have tried cracking the windows or turning on the ac with heat but to no avail. This creates a dangerous driving situation. The windows often freeze shut so it is not possible to wind the window down at intersections either. This has been happening all winter. Today it was -5 degrees here and the colder it is the worse the frost over on the windows is. I can not see at all out of either the drivers or passenger side windows.
