Rear Defrost Sloooowwww

This is kind of random, but this is the slowest rear defroster I have ever had on any car. Sometimes at work, I dont leave the office till 8-9pm and I usually enter a cold car with a frosted rear window. This car takes a good 5 minutes before I even see a little bit of clarity around the lines, and a full 20 minutes before it actually clears. We are talking so long that a single button cycle wont do.

I noticed that on mine as well. I usually have to leave for class around 8:30AM and my windows will sometimes be frosty and the rear defroster is terribly slow. Sometimes my window won't fully defrost until I get to school (I live about 2.2 miles from campus, about a 10-15 minute drive depending on traffic).

I noticed this too, I thought it was too cold or too frosty! How many bs design flaws will this car continue to have. My friends Honda accord is more competent car. Hopefully it's just a faulty defroster with a fix coming out soon.
