Excessive condensation

Asked by Grego654 Nov 04, 2018 at 05:24 PM about the 2012 Ford Escape XLT FWD

Question type: General

My wife’s car has excessive condensation on
the inside of all windows. Needs a towel to
dry it every morning. I looks like your
windshield does on the outside after it rains
but this is on the inside and there is a musty
odor also.  Any thoughts.  The a/c is draining.

Is the HVAC system stuck in RECIRC? If so it keeps recycling the air inside the cabin. Switch to OSA (Out Side Air) to draw air from outside Not inside the cabin. OR their could be a water leak and because of the excess moisture it is condensing on the windows.
