Ever since it stated to snow near me, when I drive, water and dirt sprays up on to the windshield. Any one else having this issue? I’m constantly having spray fluid while driving.

Same. And the factory wiper fluid evaporates/freezes leaving hard water spots everywhere. I bought a bottle of Rain-X window treatment and wiper fluid to try out. At least I haven't been hot by a rock yet!

Yeah I’ve been hit by a few rocks but nothing significant yet thankfully. Not sure if I have water build up in the wiper area or what, but I’m going to be burning through fluid lol

Do you have a hood/bug deflector? I've seen a few people report turbulence interfering with the sprayer and wiper.

I use the orange RainX and have been driving in blizzard conditions with no problems.

I don’t have any deflector or anything like that. I have rain x but water speckles and dirt seem to splash up in the windshield while driving. I was sure that it was from other cars while driving behind them, but it also happens when I’m the only car on the road

I’m confused by this thread. If there was water, dirt, snow, debris on the road while driving, wouldn’t you expect some to mist onto the windshield?

Yes if I’m behind cars, but it just seems to happen excessively and even when I’m not behind vehicles. Finding myself having to go through wiper fluid like nuts
