I drive a 2005 Jeep Liberty, and the inside of my car, fogs and condenses water. What do i do?

Question:
I've noticed that ever since i've bought the vehicle, i can randomly look outside and see that the windows have fogged, and it hadn't been driven for two days. Also, the inside fogs really easy when driving down the road. But the other day, i was coming out of school, around 3 and it had done it again. Except when i got inside it looked as if water was on my windshield, so i turned on my wipers, my windshield was dry. I came to find out that the whole inside of my windshield was covered in water droplets, i have no clue what happened, so i had to get napkins and dry it off so that i could see out. What is wrong, and how do i fix it?? Should i ask the guys at the mechanic place? I don't know what to do.

It does not make a huge difference but may help to know the area wherein you live- high humidity will condense on a windshield that has had the a/c run thru the defroster sometimes, but that does not seem to be your real issue.

I only have 3rd and 4th gear on my 1999 vw beetle (a 5 speed) - what could be the problem?


If you are loosing coolant in the radiator but it is not puddling on the ground then you may have a leaking heater core/hose. Is there a smell of anti-freeze? That too is a tell-tell sign of a heater core/hose leak. If it is the heater core condensation will also get worse with the defrost "on" as it is then that coolant circulates through it- at least on most cars.

where do some people get these answers?


Condensation occurs on glass when the ambient temp on one side of the glass drops lower than the ambient temp on the other side, thus causing condensation of water droplets on the windshield. A glass of ice water or ice tea is a good example of condensation. The temp inside is cooler than the temp outside thus water condenses on the outside.

i had my tires rotated and now my speedometer reads 110 when in doing 60. what the heck did they do to it?


You may run a water hose over the windshield to test for a visible leak or use a car wash with pressurized water and see what happens there. A body shop or glass shop should cost less than a regualr shop for repairs if there is no warranty. Ask for a policy adjustment or "good will" availability if just beyond warranty, like 38K-39K miles or 37-38 months, you should get it. Typically a "leaking" windshield or door seal will not fully or nearly cover the entire windshield, rather it will leave tracks; condensation will usually fully cover the windshield.

Whats Wrong With My Van?


Since it is a 2005 if the mileage is less than 36K it came with a 3yr/36K bumper to bumper warranty, take it back to the dealer for a check-over. Be kind to the dealer service writer, he did not build the Jeep, Jeep did. He is there to assist you not cheat you. Kindness will get you further. I got warranty on my S80 T6 Volvo after it ran out of warranty because of the service writer going to the service manager and my kind words to him, blaming rightly the auto maker, not the serivce provider.

turn the defogger / defroster on the Air conditioning / heating unit. if this does not work take it back to the Mercedes, umm.. i meant Jeep dealership. take pictures of what is going on or they may not believe you. also check the national highway traffic safety association website for recalls.

maybe a leak in your heater core. or try leaving window slightly cracked when you're driving, while turning on defrost to high.

You may have a leak somewhere. I had a car in which the windshield leaked, and I had that problem you could feel in the floorboards and the cargo area after a hard rain or any other time it is fogging. The other thing would be the heater core could be leaking in which case you may want to take it to a mechanic as it is usually a fairly bothersome task. If you can't figure out which it is, then carry it to a mechanic you trust. They can figure it out for you.

It sounds like a leaking heater core, but that's very unusual fro that new of a car. If you smell maple syrup, kind of a sweet, hot odor, that's a heater core leak. It should be covered under warranty. It's a very expensive repair otherwise.

Has anyone seen this new brake light? What a brilliant idea!?

you might want to get your window seal checked.it may be leaking from there.and you can buy fog-x from your local auto parts store.fog-x works great.all you have to do is apply it to a cloth and wipe the inside of your window.
