When my cars sits out in the cold too long it forms ice one the inside of the windshield! IS there anyway to prevent this (other than keeping it inside) or to get the ice off quickly? It is a 2000 Honda Civic.

how does that happen well if its on the front winshield clean it off with windex and the buy rain x aint fog and put it on the fron windo and wen u start ur can put it on heater with windshield and feet it heats ur hole car faster well my 97 civic doesso hopefully that works

I believe what that above scantly-educated thing was trying to suggest was Rain-X Anti-Fog. I believe you have to rub it on, wait till it dried then wipe it all off very good with a clean cloth.That may very well work because it should keep moisture from building up on the windsheild. No moisture, no ice.That is very strange - you should not have moisture building up like that inside your car. Are there any leaks anywhere? Sunroof?

Moisture frozen on the inside is a result of warm moisture in the car prior to turning the vehicle off for the night.If you run the heat on the floor often then moisture from snow, mats and damp carpets evaporates and clings to the inside of the vehicle at night.During operation of the vehicle make sure you run the heating system on "recirculate" to dry in dry air from outside thru the heating system and not recycle the air from inside the vehicle.At night, lower one window just a bit to allow moisture to escape.Check your owners manual for insight.

i agree with eric,leave window down just a bit.this is a common issue with honda's in winter.
