Default DeFogging

Justp urchased new NX300, and one issue we are having with it is defogging the front windshield.

We have tried various combinations of A/C, defroster, inside/outside air, but driving at night in the Florida humidity, the windshiled keeps fogging immedialtey after the wipers clear it up. The best we've been able to do is just use the wipers.

it is when we went to use the wipers that we learned we do not have rain sensing wipers - we really liked that on previous cars.

So what is best set of conditions to set to keep windshield defogged?

I live in St. Pete and have the same issues some mornings. I usually run the defrost on warmer air and usually takes care of it. But it is a little annoying.

This is not fogging up. It is condensation from moist and warm air onto you car cold windshield. Do not direct cold air inside of car onto windshield.

Most Japanese cars have foggy glass problem, unlike German cars for some reason, the NX is no exception. In fact, the NX is one of the worst car I have ever owned when it comes to fogging or dew problem on glass. The windshield is always fogging up and the side windows does not wipe clean when roll down and up. I need to wipe it clean manually in the morning and on a damp day, the dew will come right back after I wipe it.
