Does anyone else's '22 do an abysmal job at de-fogging the front windshield?

    I live in NC and the humidity has been off the charts lately. Granted, it's only 2 or 3 times a year that it gets this bad, but my drive in to work is harrowing to say the least. Yes I can run the wipers but why cant this thing de-fog (or de-ice for that matter) worth a damn? I have the whole thing set on auto for temp 100% of the time and then I've tried running the windshield blowers and not. tried with A/C and not. tried outside air and recirculating...

    For defogging, keep the recirc off.

    Yeah. its like nothing changes with recirc off. I swear, no air blows over the windshield, period.

    The biggest problem is that the dealership can never re-create the problem because its only a first thing in the morning issue

    Have to add some heat to remove the condensation from the out side of the windshield. If your using cold air it will just make it worse.
    Manually use defrost with some warmer air
