Where Does the Gap in the Front Windshield Lead To?

[DeMicah]

The gap in the front windshield leads to the air conditioning vents because the air from the windshield defogging function comes out from here. Below is a related introduction about the gap in the front windshield: Objects that fall in: If something falls into this gap, it will usually end up at the position of the air conditioning vents. If the object is very small, it might fall to the bottom of the air conditioning duct. Generally, objects that fall in won’t cause damage to any components; at most, they might block the air deflector or create unusual noises while driving. Turn on the air conditioning and check the airflow—if there’s no impact or unusual noise, there’s usually no problem. Do not install sealing strips: Installing sealing strips would block the vents, preventing the defogging function from working. Additionally, much of a car’s noise comes from the internal engine, so installing sealing strips has minimal effect on noise reduction.
