During and after a rain, the a/c and defroster does not work. Dealers have said that the belt must have gotten wet by water splashing up from the street. Once I only pulled out of the driveway and could not see where I was going due to the fogging up of the windshield caused by the air blowing hot. While driving at the start of the rain, turning on the defroster instantly fogs up the interior and you can not see out. I real life or death problem. There have been several times the car was returned to the dealer, only to have them tell me that nothing is wrong.
