This is an issue I haven't seen with any car of any brand ever. All cars I owned will strip water from the glass as good as possible by means of a touching rubber or brush bit .... but not the Kia. All watery mist or small drops just happily travel down inside the door and come up again, window still completely hazed. The Kia garage said this is an oddity they also saw on other Kia models and will check.

Do you all have this, too? Or does your Stinger properly get water off the sidewindows when lowered? it's an annoying thing as I always have fogged windows on the colder days and have to push against the glass to have it touch.
 
Yup, happens to me. Sometimes a strip about 4 inches wide will be cleaned on the part of the window closest to the B pillar hut the rest remains wet.
 
Many cars are this way. On my truck, if I want to clean the glass, I can push against the window as it goes down.

I don't think those strips are intended to wipe the window, just to keep water and debris out when the window is "up"..
