The front windshield fogs up, and you cant see anything through it. You need to turn on the air-conditioning, so that it heats the front windshield up. If you don't do that, you will crash because of 0% visibility.
The front defrost system does not work. There appears to be a secret formula need to get the defrost system to defrost the front windshield. I have made several complaints to the dealer and was informed that only 1 other person had complained of this issue. This is a very dangerous defect. Normally I'm driving through a storm, the windshield fogs up and I can't see. I end up pulling over to the side of the road wherever I can.
