Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING IN FREEZING TEMPERATURES MY WINDOWS BEGIN TO FOG AND FROST ON THE INSIDE OF ALL 4 WINDOWS, THE REAR WINDOW, AND THE CORNERS OF THE WINDSHIELD. AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 10 - 15 MINUTES WITH THE DEFROSTERS BLOWING WARM AIR, THE CAR IS UNABLE TO CLEAR THE FROST. AND BY THEN, THE FROST HAS BUILT UP ENOUGH TO THE POINT TO WHERE I CANNOT SEE OUT OF EITHER DRIVERS OR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. THIS CAR WAS BROUGHT TO LUPIENT CHEVROLET IN BLOOMINGTON, MN (WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED 6 MONTHS AGO). IT WAS LOOKED AT FOR A WEEK IN WHICH THE SERVICE MANGER INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM DUE TO THE ENGINE BEING TOO SMALL TO KEEP UP WITH COLD WINTER CONDITIONS. *TR
