Replying to: thux (Jan 03, 2007 9:38 am) it's also possible you are have the vent system set to recirculate....never never never never use recirculate with heat.

Replying to: thux (Jan 03, 2007 9:38 am) When I test drove it, it fogged up really fast. I've never seen windows fog up that quickly before and it wasn't even that cold out. I don't know what the salesperson did but I'm sure it had to do with the air/heat circulation. It never happend after that.

Replying to: bhmr59 (Jan 09, 2007 9:46 pm) 1st defroster mode-the feet/window setting. 2nd is the full window setting on the heater control dial. Does this help?

Replying to: dadof6 (Jan 08, 2007 6:36 pm) )) "The a/c compressor runs in both defroster modes on my '07 GLS. FYI" ((   Then for whatever reason, excessively humid air is being processed. If you're operating the system with fresh air entry, reset the controls to "recirculate" mode. If you're already doing that, then it's time for a trip to the dealer to find and correct an extraneous air or (shudder!) coolant leak into the heater core casing. Check the drain hose from the heater core casing underneath the car - if it's plugged, condensation won't drain and you'll also end up with fogged windows regardless how you manipulate the HVAC controls.

Replying to: ray_h1 (Jan 11, 2007 5:28 pm) One other thought. I really need to climb in back and clean the inside of the rear window. "Normally" it's OK. But on a damp or rainy day it appears quite fogged unless/until I turn on the rear window defroster.   A good "windex" of all interior glass may do the trick--or not. Even though your car is new, it may have "stuff" (a film) on the glass.
#10 of 12 Fog & dew by dave868 Oct 18, 2008 (7:00 pm)
I really dont understand... I have 3 cars in my driveway... and when I go out every morning the heaviest fog is on my Sonata. About half the time the other 2 cars windows are perfectly clear... but the Sonata's are always wet and foggy.   How can this be?

Replying to: dave868 (Oct 18, 2008 7:00 pm) You don't have rain water leaking into the trunk/spare tire area do you? Moisture trapped somewhere in the car can case this.   It's a 6 cyl curse dave.....you should have bought the 4. Replies to this message: dave868 (Oct 22, 2008 6:10 pm)

Replying to: craigbrooks (Oct 21, 2008 2:41 pm) I only have had the car for 2 weeks now... and it really hasnt rained. I have also noticed that the rear defogger is very weak.   I was planning to buy the 4cyl...... until I test drove it. It was just too underpowered.
