How to Deal with Fog Inside the Car?

Solutions for fog inside the car are as follows: 1. Turn on the air conditioning: After the engine warms up, turn on the cold air blower, temporarily close other air ducts, and concentrate the airflow directly on the glass surface to quickly disperse the fog. 2. Open windows for ventilation: You can use the warm or cold air from the air conditioning to solve the problem. The car's air conditioning system has a defogging function for the windshield. 3. Use some defogging products: Before driving, you can spray a little on the windshield, rear window, four side windows, and the exterior rearview mirrors. This defogging spray forms a film on the glass surface, making it harder for fog to form.

I've been driving for many years, and the fog inside the car in winter is always troublesome, mainly caused by large temperature differences and high humidity. To deal with it, first locate the air conditioning control panel, press the defrost button to let the fan blow air onto the windshield; turn up the temperature, around 26 degrees, and switch to the external circulation mode, so the warm air can quickly evaporate the water droplets. Avoid wiping the glass directly with a cloth, as it may leave oil stains and make it blurrier. If the fog is severe, pull over immediately, open both side windows to let in some air before driving off. During regular maintenance, remember to clean the inside of the glass to reduce dust buildup. There are also some anti-fog sprays that work well—applying a layer can prevent fogging for several days. In short, stay calm, prioritize safety, and ensure clear visibility before hitting the road.

Buddy, don't panic when there's fog. I often encountered this issue when I got my new car. It's most likely to fog up during summer rains or when there's a big temperature difference after parking. A simple solution is to immediately press the defogger switch in the car, usually located near the air conditioning controls in the front with a window icon. Once turned on, the fan will automatically blow cold air onto the windshield to remove moisture. If it feels too cold, just turn up the temperature a bit. Opening the window slightly for air circulation also helps, but be careful not to open it too wide and mess up your hairstyle. Using the wiper for an emergency wipe is okay, but don't rely on it too much as it can easily scratch the glass. I found that keeping the internal circulation on often makes it worse, so switching to external circulation is better. Keeping a small towel in the car for dry wiping is much more effective than wet wiping. Don't forget to regularly check the air filter—if it's dirty, it affects performance. These small habits can make a big difference in keeping your drive comfortable.

Every day when I drive my kids to school, the fogging up inside the car is particularly dangerous as it affects visibility and can easily lead to accidents. To deal with it quickly, use the air conditioning defrost function, set the temperature to around 20 degrees, turn the fan to maximum, and aim it at the windshield. It should clear up in three to five minutes after turning it on. Remind passengers not to get too close to the glass as their breath can add moisture and make it worse. Don't wipe the glass while the car is moving to avoid distraction. For prevention, clean the inside and outside of the car windows weekly to keep them clear. You can also use a household defogger, which is safe and odorless. If there's fogging, don't speed and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles.
