Sportage

The freezing point of the windshield washer fluid is too high. It froze while I was driving with outside temperature at 6 Fahrenheit. Which made cleaning the windshield impossible and diminishing driving visibility because I couldn't use windshield washer fluid to clean the windshield. This was very dangerous and in all honesty downright scary. This was a brand new Kia Sportage that had 5 miles when I picked it up from budget rental cars.
