I too was out in the 2 feet of snow and the icing occured on the front wipers. I bought some prestone de-icer and sprayed the front wipers and glass and it seemed to help out.
I would think we are having this problem because the windshield is straight up. The defroster can't hit the glass were the wipers sit. I know some cars come with a defroster built in the glass were the wipers sit. The H1 also has a defroster built into the whole windshield, why can't we get something like that as a option???
