Just bought new Honda ACCORD. During humid days have a lot of fogging on outside of the windshield. Defrost button doesn't help. Night visibility with fogging next to zero. The only thing which works is heat with defrosting. Not very comfortable in 90F weather. Any advices? Thanks.

Hi nsky89,

This is something that has no definite answer.

Using the defrost button would in fact cause it to fog more.
Personally I use the windshield wipers and washer to clear the misting. This sometimes does not work well other options are to stop using the AC or heater. Wind down the windows slightly or use the fresh air mode.

There are some moisture repellants avaiable in the market that can help reduce the misting. Check out at your local parts store.
