FJ Cruiser

  • 5,000 miles
When driving in snow conditions the windshield wipers build up amazing amounts of ice. I spoke with dealership and they claim it does that because of the angle of the windshield. I was having to pull over and stop to break the ice off my wipers because they stopped clearing the windshield and I would loose visibility. Also, the underside of the Fj cruiser builds up and collects ice like nothing I have ever seen. I am a over the road truck driver and have driven in all types and levels of bad weather, I have never seen ice build up like it does on the Fj cruiser.. the first time I thought it might have just been a fluke but it repeated the ice build up yesterday when it snowed again.
