Default 2019 RX350 Passenger Window - Defect or...?

Hi all, our 2019 RX needed a good wash so I took it to the car wash today. Entire car came out great with clean windows EXCEPT for the passenger side. I used glass cleaner inside/out all windows and they are all perfect except for this one. I attached a photo but it's hard to see - it almost looks like the entire window has water spotting on it, but no amount of glass cleaner and scrubbing gets rid of it (look at the part of the glass with the sideview mirror for better contrast). I would assume the window needs further cleaning but all other windows/mirrors are perfect. Is there another product I should try or maybe the spotting is within the glass? I don't know anything about how the glass is manufactured so my guess might be totally wrong. Thanks.

It looks like hard water spot from your garden water sprinkler. Try some warm white vinegar in spray bottle to dissolve the water spot. Spray it on the window, let the vinegar sit for 2 to 3 mins, then clean it with water.

Ohhhhh that would make sense as the irrigation system does make its way onto the driveway (and our cars) at times. Thank you, I will try this out!
