We out to my almost new Nissan car and the windshield was fogged over. The instructions say to turn the temp up all the way and turn on the defroster.

It made me think about using a hair dryer. Not only did it take a while, in the 5 minutes it took to defrost the windshield, it used quite a bit of the energy from the main battery.

On the positive side, fogging, so far, has been rare. Also, I keep paper towels handy and they seem to work well.

I am not so surprised. Seems most cars I’ve owned have had defrosting and deicing problems. I do find it difficult to understand how they can put good defrosting on the back windows but not so much on the front.

That is right. The back window took less than a minute.
