NHTSA Complaint #11153225 — 2017 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE

WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER DOES NOT DEFROST 1/2 OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE. ICE/SNOW REMAIN COMPLETELY INTACT. IT HAS TO BE COMPLETELY SCRAPED AND WILL FINALLY START TO CLEAR WHEN I CONTINUE TO USE WASHER FLUID/WIPERS AND INSIDE OF VEHICLE WARMS. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMP DROPS AND ALL WINDOW INTERIORS FOG/FROST. THIS DOES NOT CLEAR UNTIL INTERIOR WARMS COMPLETELY. THIS COULD TAKE 1/2 HR. INTERIOR FROST HAS TO BE SCRAPED THAT LEAVES FOG BEHIND. I'VE HAD TO DRIVE ALL THE WAY TO WORK WITH WINDSHIELD NOT CLEAR. DEALER HAS CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES. TECH DETECTED THAT THERE IS NO DEFROSTER AIR FLOW TO THAT SIDE. UNABLE TO CORRECT. WAS TOLD ENTIRE DASH WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED AND THAT REPAIR IS BEING DENIED UNDER WARRANTY. PICS SHOW BOTH SIDES AFTER DEFROSTING FOR 20 MIN.
