Typical visibility and wiper symptoms owners report

Front defroster airflow reaches only the center vents, leaving the left and right sides of the windshield iced or fogged with no clear fix reported.
Driver-side sun visor mount loosens or drops out of its socket while driving, blocking vision at highway speeds.
Windshield cracks appear without any impact, in some cases repeatedly on the same vehicle, sometimes tied to a broken or cracked windshield seal that also let water leak into the forward camera/radar housing.
Backup camera screen periodically goes black when shifting into reverse, even after dealer replacement of the camera.
Some owners link windshield cracking to defroster heat cycling automatically with remote start.
