windshield fogging up

My dash vent seems to always be getting AC. I have turned AC on and off, DASH always seems to get fogged up. Anyone else seeing this?

Yep. Basically, too much cold air leaks out the defrost vents and creates condensation circles in humid conditions. No real fix.

Yeah, this is a problem for me! I live in Miami. This is obstructing my view very often. Even with AC off this seems to occur.

AC is the problem in my case. I can turn the temp up to 75 and I dont have the problem, but any temp in the 60s and it makes the windshield so cold, I get condensation on the outside.

Fogging windshield

I have this problem here in Tampa Florida and it is excessively bad. Stopping at a red light or idling for a couple minutes then the windshield fogs up. Keeping the temp at 74+ on the dual zone control and the fan on low it only fogs up a small area but try to drop the temp even 1 degree or increase fan speed then there are 2 large fogged up areas on the front windshield.

I am curious if this RainX Antifog product will actually help at all? Obviously, the real fix is to divert or prevent the cold air from hitting the winshield.

The dealer actually did try both rain and fog X. Rain beeds off the windshield but the fogging up is still bad.
