That's odd. I live in the Pacific Northwest and I can count on one hand the number of times I've had to manually turn on defogging. Often my Model 3 will say, "auto defogging". Maybe your humidity sensor is faulty?

I agree that physical controls for these things would be ideal, but nowadays the only one that annoys me is lack of the wiper controls. I think even that issue would go away if Tesla used rain sensors instead of cameras to trigger the wipers.

They’ve improved the wiper controls in the Tesla in a recent update.

I haven’t found the “auto defogging” - will check for it.

The wipers are certainly better than when I got the car 5 years ago, but they still seem to go too slow or too fast in some conditions. I don't have much to compare them against, as my previous cars have all been from the early 1990s or cheap rentals.

I don't remember a setting for auto defogging. My car just does it sometimes.

yeah, same here. Our Subaru does better in this regard.
