Compass

  • 20,500 miles
The side windows, front and rear, fog/frost over while the vehicle is being driven. Running the defroster on high heat at full fan results in a small peep hole to see the side mirrors. The rest of the windows remain covered and you can't see out. A safety issue when living in Michigan in the winter. Not sure if this is a design flaw or a problem that can be addressed.
