Description of the problem | Was driving on city street with fairly high traffic. Very heavy rain and humidity. I turned on defogger and the windshield got increasingly more fogged up. The defogger did not clear the windshield. I had to drive at 20 mpg to avoid a collision. I brought the car to the dealership and was told nothing was wrong with the defogger. The car is two weeks old. |
