Issues with something on the inside of the windshield..

Post by Sublimewind »

Hi all,My GF recently got a 08' Avenger and the windshield has something on it, it looks like it may have come up through the VENTS.. like maybe the heater core went?? Whatever it is, it won't come off with solvent's.. It's looks vapor like, almost like a glass shower door that never comes completely clean.You can REALLY see it at night, it distorts the light.. Any thoughts??

Is it still under warranty? Otherwise I would maybe recommend having the windshield replaced if the whatever caused the issue will not occur again, if you can do it financially. Seems like an odd thing really.

I wonder if 000 steel wool and some type of glass cleaner would get rid of it? I have rid that people have used 000 steel wool to get rid of fine scratches on their windows...

Try a good industrial degreaser like: (don't get it on the dash)Or decalcifier: (don't get it on the dash)Hopefully your stain isn't etched into the windshield...
