Hey guys,

Just wanted to see if anyone else is having this issue.

My car (2016 Civic Sedan EX-T) is mostly in the garage, so I don't typically have dew or moisture on it in the mornings, but I left my car outside the other night. In the morning, I got in my car and I rolled down the windows to clear the dew off of them, however it only worked on the drivers side. The passenger side front and rear window still had dew on them, like the wipe strip didn't make contact. I dont think this is normal. I'm going to have the dealer check it out. Does anyone else have this issue?

I wouldn't sweat it. Just wipe off the moisture with a dry towel before heading out. My car is always in the garage so I don't usually have a dew problem.

What I do is blast the heat. After a minute I'm good to go.

Mine does the same. Other vehicles I've owned have done it and some haven't. It's hit or miss. As the others have said, the heat seems to clear the windows pretty quickly.
