CONSUMER TURNED ON THE DEFOGGER AND AIR CONDITIONING MIXED IN WITH THE HEAT. THIS CAUSED THE WINDOW TO FOG UP. ALSO, POOR VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALER FOR INSPECTION, AND MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, CONSUMER'S VEHICLE WAS NOT ON RECALL. *AK CONSUMER IS HOPING THAT HYUNDAI WILL MODIFY THE DEFROSTER SYSTEM. *LA
