POLL: Does you windshield fog up at all when running your A/C?

Doing this for the forum to gauge this potential issue better. I do not have my car yet, but I am still very curious as the the ratio of who has and doesn't have this issue.

I added a poll, and a very simple one. Please vote if you own a '16 and newer Camaro and use your A/C.

Please keep warranty/service related chat to this main thread on the topic: http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=458990

I never noticed any fogging except when early in the morning when the coastal dew is yet to subside, but that's the same when I drive my blazer. on normal day driving I don't have any fogging up.

Mine does it, although some days it doesn't. I've learned to control it by manipulating the AC controls to lessen if not eliminate it altogether.

I have it but I think it's manageable/tolerable in most cases. I saw some guys in the other thread talking about how they wouldn't have bought the car had they known about this prior. I don't feel that way. That said, I also think Chevy should have at least attempted to resolve it.

All the time but my condensation crop circles stay limited in size and do not really block my view. On really humid days I need to use the wipers to clear it.

It is annoying to me that nobody cared to address this when the issue appeared. Hey look, we are leaking to much cold air onto the windshield, oops, oh well. The engineering team took a lot of pride in their work to get the car to go 0-60 in 4.0 sec but nobody cares about basic HVAC fundamental design. I wouldn't be surprised it this unconventinal placement/design of the AC vents has something to do with the inability to seal off air from reaching the defrost vent.

I haven't had mine fog up once. Even during the hot summer months when I can feel the cold air putting out the cold air the windshield remains crystal clear.

Only in the morning and not enough to block anything. Maybe two spots 1 inch by 1 inch. Only car I've had with this issue out of a lot of cars.
