I just cleaned my windshield with Invisible glass and put rainx anti fog on the lower part of the windshield (inside the vehicle obvi).

Ill report back with the results.

So my biggest problem has been with the right side of the defrost vent. I have to use the floor vent or defrost directly to get the driver side condensation to show up bad, or use the front vents on low temp and full blast.

However, here is my pathetic fix that is actually working great for me...the passenger side controls the right side defrost vent that causes me the most problems. I've been keeping my passenger side temp set to 76 and my driver side set to low, then I close the two passenger facing vents from blowing warm air. Even at full blast It sends cold air to me, and enough warm air up at the windshield to prevent it from fogging. I realize this only works for folks with dual temp controls, but give it a shot.

I can't imagine this problem in a place as humid as Florida. Even along the Ohio river where I live it is awful and very distracting. I can't believe this would be overlooked...but then again, I've been thinking that a lot lately with this car. Still a huge blast to drive thankfully!

So is everyone's windshield fogging up on the inside/outside, or both?

I used several coats of the Rainx antifog and im having issues with fogging up on the outside of the windshield near the vents now. Most of this anti fog stuff is for inside use. But this is just putting a bandaid on the problem. This is going to be an annoying issue for anyone in the South East. In SC we are in jungle climate right now.

I used the RainX product here (ive had this bottle in my detailing stash forever):
Rain-X AF21212 Anti-Fog https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0009H5W5W..._dwzHxb5VCR06H

They also have a bigger one in a spray bottle, and one for bathrooms:
Rain-X 630046 Interior Glass Anti-Fog - 12 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00T9LR9FA..._sxzHxb7BP1415

Rain-X 630034 Bathroom Mirror Anti-Fog, 12 fl. oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DXKZ7B0..._VxzHxbASCV1QJ

Using liquid rain-x on both the inside and outside worked for me. I tried the rain-x window cleaner and when that didn't work tried the wipes and the anti-fog. Be careful on the inside of your car with the liquid. Don't let it drip on your dash panels but be liberal with how much you put on the windshield.

Are you using RainX or RainX anti fog on the outside?

Mine is outside as well. Weird. It never happened on all other cars that I drove.

I am having the same issue since day one. I think its 1) a design flaw or 2) a mechanical flaw. Specifically, either the window is too close to the dash or the car was not mechanically designed correctly to keep too much airflow from escaping through the defrost vent. It is a pain in the butt especially here in deep south texas where it is very very humid.

This is ridiculous! It's a safety issue as far as I'm concerned. I'll be taking mine to the dealer and will not accept any BS answer. I can't even drive at night without running the wipers.

Let us know what happens. It is really annoying, but I don't see a quick fix or at least I can't think of one. I might try that RainX stuff.
