My front windscreen completely fogged up whilst driving. This is the second time it happened for no apparent reason but is really dangerous

The front windscreen of a BYD vehicle could fog up while driving due to moisture buildup inside the vehicle or blocked air circulation. If the front windshield is blocked by foreign objects or is foggy due to poor ventilation, it may cause visibility issues. Using the air conditioning system and ensuring proper airflow can help reduce fogging. If the issue persists, it is recommended to contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.

Questions and answers
My front windscreen completely fogged up whilst driving. This is the second time it happened for no apparent reason but is really dangerous
The front windscreen of a BYD vehicle could fog up while driving due to moisture buildup inside the vehicle or blocked air circulation. If the front windshield is blocked by foreign objects or is foggy due to poor ventilation, it may cause visibility issues. Using the air conditioning system and ensuring proper airflow can help reduce fogging. If the issue persists, it is recommended to contact a BYD authorized dealer or service provider.
