Condensation area at same area on passenger side windshield
Discussion
Ok, after getting the windshield tinted, I do notice this fogged area in the windshield. It’s a small condensation on the passenger side where the windshield meets the dash. It’s about 3” by 2” rectangular size. Always in the same area. I never noticed it until after I got the tint. It kind of goes away and then comes back. At first, I thought it was the tint trying to cure, and it went away and came back. Today, I wiped away the condensation with a microfiber and drove around for a bit and the condensation didn’t come back. Very strange. I always have the AC on. I’m hoping the installer didn’t damage the windshield somehow and causing a slight imperfection that is causing the condensation. It seems highly unlikely that could happen from tint installation and maybe it was just an isolated case.

But why is it always that area only? Is there some portion of the dash that meets the passenger side windshield that sticks up more?
I suspect it has something to do with the tint installer using lots of water on the windshield tint. The front is kind of wet around the pillars. Plus I hear a water sound going left to right when I turn the car makes me believe that there is water stuck in the front of the car. It’ll dry up eventually. But that specific area of the passenger windshield keeps having condensation, even after I wipe it up.

Possibly another issue, see 'Sloshing Around' thread below this oneI suspect it has something to do with the tint installer using lots of water on the windshield tint.
