Whenever it rains or snows defogger will just stopped working. Windows fogged up, and it was impossible to see clearly. Consumer felt this was very unsafe. Also with the air conditioner on to assist with the heater, the air conditioner light flashed and the air conditioner stopped working. Moist weather and driving over water puddles possibly caused electrical malfunction with the air conditioner and defogger.
