DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS STREAK AFTER EXPOSURE TO WATER OR SNOW REDUCING DRIVER VISIBILITY. THE STREAKING OCCURS WHEN THE MDX IS PARKED IN RAIN/SNOW OR DRIVEN IN RAIN/SNOW. WHEN WINDOWS ARE ROLLED DOWN THEN BACK UP BOTH THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW ARE STREAKED WITH WATER AND DEBRIS. THIS WILL LAST FOR DAYS. BECAUSE OF THE SALT OR DIRT THAT SITS WITH THE WATER, VISIBILITY IS JEOPARDIZED AND DRIVING IS UNSAFE. THE STREAKS COVER 75% OF THE WINDOW MOVING FROM FRONT TO BACK LEAVING THE BACK 25% OF THE WINDOW WITH SOME VISIBILITY. *JB
INTERIOR OF WINDOWS STREAK WITH WATER AFTER RAIN/CAR WASH WHEN ROLLED DOWN ANY DISTANCE. THE STREAKING HAPPENS WITHIN THE FIRST 8 TO 10 INCHES OF THE WINDOW. DEALER HAS NO FIX AND STATES MANUFACTURER DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. *JB
