Broken Rear Window Defrost
I noticed that some of the lines on my rear window are not heating. I believe its 2 lines on the drivers side and 1 in the middle. I was very surprised to find this especially after tinting my rear window. Now I know "need_TQM" has reported this problem also. Anyone else see this. I know its summer and there is very little use of the defrost now. I will be taking it in for my 5K service in a few weeks, but want to see if it is a wide spread problem. I just hope they don't blame it on the tint! How would they fix this anyway, replace window or repair lines?

Is this a common issue?

Is this a common issue on the b8 platform?
