| Description of the problem | The interior windows will suddenly get covered with fog. This has happened over twenty five times to my car. It doesn't matter what the weather, or outside temp is. This, causes a serious problem trying to see out of the car. The first time it happened i caled the dealership. I was told to run the ac. It can happen even when the ac , is already on. I've had it into the dealership five times in the 14 months i've had the car. They can't find the problem. I've taken clear photographs 3 times showing clear images of how bad the interior fogging gets. Dealership told me to contact subaru america ask for rplacment. I have spoken to three people at subaru, provided all photos. They refuse to replace. This is going to cause an accident. Munn 16 2015 it happened while i was on interstate i-205 and it made seeing out of the car almost impossable. I had to carefully pull of to road side wipe windshield and all interior windows off. I have to carry towels with me at all times. Problem happens without any indacation, it's about to happen. I'm disabled veteran and require a lot of medical appointments at the va medical center. I live alone so i'm taking a chance just trying to get to the va. At some point this is going to cause an accadent. Subaru showed little concern, even if there are others with the same or simile problem. |
