What to Do When the Car Window Keeps Fogging Up Inside?
2 Answers
Solutions for frequent fogging inside car windows are as follows: 1. Open the windows for convection. When the fog is not too heavy, slightly open both side windows to allow outside air to circulate, reducing the temperature difference and eliminating the fog. 2. Press the front windshield defogging button on the central control panel and adjust all air vents to face the front windshield. After the fog disappears, you can turn off the AC button, reduce the air volume slightly, and switch to warm air blowing towards the glass. 3. Spray the defogging agent evenly onto a soft cloth and wipe the front windshield, or spray it directly onto the glass.
I've been driving for over a decade, and foggy windows are a common occurrence, especially in winter or rainy days when the humidity inside the car is high. The solution is quite simple: I usually check the car's air conditioning system before heading out, turn on the defogging mode, and direct the airflow toward the windshield, adjusting the temperature higher or lower as needed. If fog appears suddenly, I pull over immediately and wipe it off with a clean cloth—never attempt to clean while driving, as it's too dangerous. I also regularly apply anti-fog spray, the kind you can buy at supermarkets, which keeps the glass clear for several days. In the long run, it's important to keep the interior dry, ensure no water leaks through door seams, change the air filter frequently, and open windows for ventilation when humidity is high. Safety comes first, so never take foggy windows lightly.
