Tiguan SEL 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles

I began noticing the window would fog/freeze when I would turn on the defroster, independent of the weather or the temperature showing on the HVAC unit. If I had the inside air on 85 and it was 90 degrees outside, within 5 minutes of turning on the defroster the widow would begin to ice up from the inside. I took it to the dealership and they ran diagnostics and told me everything displayed correctly and was within reasonable limits. They said it sounded crazy for me to ask to have the heat checked in the throws of summer in the south, so they didn't charge me for the inspection. But it also hasn't been working.
