Forget about heated headlights - we need heated wiper blades

It’s not hot fluid.

Doesn't have to be hot.......... all it takes is a temperature difference.

It works great. Had it for years. Even in CO.

Every time I drive in the snow this is what my windshield looks like. I've driven in New England my entire life and never had as many issues with ice buildup and frozen wipers as this rig. Just one more thing to add to the list of disappointments. Do better Jeep

If you are getting icing at the corners, you need to block some of the center vent openings so the heat goes to the sides. I think that is why you see so many Jeeps with ducks on the dash!

From someone who has spent decades driving in mountain winters:

In wet snow that's sticking to the glass: Full heat, full fan, set to the defroster vent. Control the cabin temperature by cracking the window.

In dry, pebbly "gropple" snow that bounces off the glass: Keep the glass cool so the snow doesn't melt and start to stick, wear a jacket and warm clothing inside the cab, use heated seats and steering wheel.

Heck, I've had to do that sort of thing with my cars for decades - defrost as high and hot as possible, screw comfort - crack a window to stay cool if needed.
You pretty much described how things have been since I started driving - with Fred Flintstones old trade-in.
