LI Edge Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 2013 Edge SEL with my Ford Snyc. etc. I am having an issue with the front defroster not clearing the window. even at full blast and cold air, it creates pockets of blind spots where the condensation is not getting cleared.. last night it was so bad I had to sit closer to the steering wheel and peer over the lower portion of the windshiled just to safely see the road ahead. any ideas of what can be causing this or what can be done to remidey the situation? I hate that my first post here and afer a year and 12k miles this is my intro to the forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I have the same issue. Very annoying.. Mine condesation is on the outside,wipers take it off. Have to run heat to keep it clear. I assume engine heat is coming up through the cowl??? Larry Northern,In Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) I am having this same issue when the temps are below 32 degrees. the back and side windows get so foggy its not safe to drive. I have to roll the windows down to change lanes. the front window occasionally get's really bad. depending on if there are multiple people in the car. if it's just me, then the front window is only foggy on the edges. All this is on the inside of the vehicle. I've taken it multiple times to my Ford Dealearship, the first time last winter when vehicle was only a few months old and again this year. They've seen the problem but can't find anything wrong. I brought it back there this morning hoping we could solve it. I suggested that they look to see if the air was being pulled from the outside or from the inside of the vehicle. they said it's pulling from the outside like it's supposed to. This is beyond frustrating. any suggestions? Today was the first time i found someone else who is having these same issues.
