Default front window fogging

does anyone have this problem, I'm getting this fogging as if it cold out side and i turn the air on for the first time. its only on the lower part but the front sides are right in my eye sight. when i go to wipe it away its like a oily film, it just smears. this fog comes back after every cleaning almost the same day. if i go out of town i clean the window and after 3 or 4 hours its back what the hell is this crap. thanks

I hope it's not something in your system/vent. When you clean, what do you use? If it's oily, you want something to cut through the oily film and not just moving it around the glass hoping it disappear. I'd also clean inside the windsheild as well as outside the windshield. Good luck!

I've never been able to make Windex work for me. Try getting a good glass cleaner like Stoner and a pair of microfiber rags; Put the cleaner on with one rag and then wipe it off with the dry rag.

I think there is a TSB for that. Go to the dealer- its not going to go away.
