If there is any moisture on the outside of the driver's side window, it is not removed when window is rolled down and back up. Asked Hyundai dealer to take a look at it shortly after I purchased it. They said there was nothing they could do and that it was a characteristic of the Hyundai. I feel this is a safety issue.
