Dear Robert,
Throughout winter the windows on my 2018 Nissan Kicks were freezing shut. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?
Thanks,
Linda
Hi, Linda!
There are a number of ways to stop the windows on your 2018 Nissan Kicks from freezing shut. Just make sure you never pour warm water over them because this can easily crack or even break the glass.
To prevent this from happening, you’ll first need to head down to your local auto parts store and pick up a can of silicone spray and a rag.
Silicone spray can be used to lubricate just about anything and it’s resistant to water which stops ice from forming.
Put your Kicks’ window all the way down and spray the rubber channels on the right, left, and top: a light coating should do the trick. This will keep the material soft and pliable and stop it from sticking to the glass.
Roll the window up and down a few times to spread the solution. Finally, wipe away any excess silicone with your rag.
Thanks for the question, Linda! Contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you ever need anything else.
