    So last winter my windshield was getting condensation on the inside- took it to dealership they couldn't find anything. So today (6mons later) some type of foam that is wedged between windshield and dash came off half way. Anyone had this issue yet?

    Mine peeled also but on the passenger side. I was trying to remove a parking permit I had there and the foam came along with the permit. :annoyed:

    Yeah, it happens.

    This happens in other brands, too. The "other car", a cx5, had this same thing happen.

    That foam looks more to reduce noise or vibration between the dash, windshield and firewall instead of sealing from moisture. Just wait til it gets older and it starts to break down, you'll turn on the defrost you'll find little fuzzies raining down on you in the cab.
