Hello All,
I recently took delivery of a 2020 Venue SE (M/T) and it is a great "run around" car, perfect for its purpose.
The morning after I took delivery (I bought it sight unseen and the dealership dropped it off) I noticed water droplets condensed on the INSIDE of the windshield near the bottom which evaporated after running the defrost.
Shortly thereafter, when the weather (Maryland, USA) turned colder the car started fogging up completely -- FROM THE INSIDE!
Yep, all that moisture is on the inside of the car! Here is another photo that was taken from inside the car:
Upon further inspection, we found that the carpet on the passenger side (front and back) was very wet:
Video of water in rugs
We mopped it up as best we could, and ran the a/c and heater simultaneously with the windows closed on recirculation mode which seemed to get rid of most of the moisture.
However, within two weeks it was fogging up from the inside AGAIN, so I called the dealership and they came and picked it up to see if they can find out what is going on.
The tech I spoke with indicated that this is NOT the first Venue to exhibit this sort of problem.
My question is this: have any of you heard of this going on with the Venue and what do you think is going on??
