Windscreen condensation

[Barnezy]

Hi all,

So I've had my Vantage now for two weeks. One thing I've noticed is condensation forming in the bottom corners of the windscreen. The window to see the VIN is also always fogged up. When I say condensation, I mean a collection of water droplets not just mist.

Is this normal on these cars or is it something I should take back to the dealer?

My car suffers from this and I was told it means we both have a leaking windscreen (it is bonded into the car)
The corner at the drivers side is the worst for mine so I keep a small cloth there to absorb the moisture.

So I just bought the car.... Should AM sort this?

Take it back to dealer for a re stick of screen or new one...mine did this and eventually the bond broke and I could lift out the screen....took to dealer who agreed for new screen to be installed...

Bond failure is usually attributed to poor preparation (insufficient use of primer/activator) or the subsrate(s) being contaminated. It is extremely rare for the adhesive itself to fail.

Glass de-laminating, replaced my rear windscreen because edges we're going. Age related/manufacturing problem that small makers suffer from TVR had major issues with this.
