What to Do When the Inside of the Car's Windshield Gets Blurry in the Rain?

The best solution is to use windshield washer fluid. Just like cleaning the exterior of the windshield, the fluid can also clean the inside of the car's glass. Dilute the windshield washer fluid with water and pour it into a spray bottle. Spray it onto the blurry or dirty areas on the inside of the windshield, being mindful of the amount sprayed. After scraping off the residue with a glass scraper, wipe the surface clean with a soft, lint-free cloth. If the blurriness or glare persists after cleaning, consider replacing the windshield film with a better-quality one.
I often encounter the issue of a blurry front windshield from the inside when it rains, mainly caused by moisture condensation. While driving, it's important to note that high humidity inside the car can lead to fogging when exhaled warm air meets the cold glass. It's recommended to turn on the air conditioning's defogging function as soon as you get in the car. Press the fan icon to set the airflow to maximum, adjust the temperature to a low setting, and switch to external circulation to let dry air in, which can dry the windshield within minutes. Cleaning the inside of the glass is also essential. Every month, use a clean microfiber cloth with a bit of alcohol or glass cleaner to thoroughly wipe the glass, removing oil and dust to reduce moisture adhesion. Avoid leaving wet items in the car; place umbrellas and shoes in dry areas. Aging seals can leak and increase humidity, so regular maintenance checks are advisable for peace of mind. Safe driving is paramount—if visibility becomes poor, find a safe place to pull over and address the issue rather than risking driving with impaired vision.
