When the car is turned on mist comes from the vents without turning on the ventilation system. This causes the windows to fog up and creates poor visibility for driver. Dealer says heater core needs to be replaced.

Visibility: defroster/defogger/HVAC system: heater core
- What is wrong
- The end cap connecting the heat exchanger's core to the engine cooling system could rupture and allow hot coolant to escape into the passenger compartment.
- Risk
- The coolant escaping into the passenger compartment could contact the driver's feet and injure the driver. Also, steam from the heater liquid will cloud on the window surfaces and impair the driver's vision. In either case, failure of the heater core end cap could result in a vehicle accident.
- Remedy
- A coolant temperature controlled heater core fluid bypass valve will be installed.
