Just bought new '04 Burb and went out in the winter mess today for
the first time (25 degrees, freezing drizzle) and the defroster,heat, and wipers wouldn't clear the windshield of ice or frost! First noticed it when I was warming it up in the driveway - all windows cleared except the top of the windshield. ![]() Went driving and no matter what I did; defroster on 80 degrees, wiper fluid, wipers, lowering the visors to trap the air would clear the upper third of the windshield - eye level and above! Drove it until I ran out of wiper fluid and took it by the dealer. Spoke to the service manager who said it was performing as best it could in the weather! BS! If I can't drive it in this kind of weather, it is useless! Every automobile I've ever owned was able to heat the inside to defrost and maintain a clear windshield. The wipers were ice free the inside cabin temperature was 80+ until I couldn't breath and still couldn't see through the upper third of the windshield! Never had this trouble with an '01 or '97! There is plenty of air coming out of the defrost but above half way on the windshield the air seems to bounce out toward the driver not climbing to the upper area? The moonroof defrosted with the high temps but not the windshield! As I was trying to figure it out the only thing I noticed was that the ceiling panel at the top of the windshield was slightly gapped whereby I could almost stick my finger above the panel. Could cold air be backflowing from the moonroof down on the windshield from under the ceiling panel??? Any suggestions would be more than welcome. This is a serious problem in bad weather and can only be diognosed in such. Dealer is oblivious to problem let alone solution. Let's talk Lemon Law! ![]() Help Please! Best, TheFFV |
