    Default Fog/water droplets on inside of windshield.

    What the heck?

    It was like my car was fairly foggy, even after hours of being cold.
    Yet, the kind of nasty thing about it, there were fairly good sized distinguishable DROPLETS forming, as if my interior was just saturated.

    The windshield was the only thing like this, the other windows were only slightly foggy.

    It was slightly slick, so do you think my coolant is leaking in someplace in my vents, and when my ac/heat turns off it just evaps onto my window?

    I've never seen it so nasty before. Also, sometimes my car smells a tad bit moldy, but it goes away after a minute of ac/heat. I think there could be some kind of buildup/leak going into my vents up front under the window...

    It might have popped the heater core. Check your coolant level. If it stays steady, check for interior leaks where rainwater might be coming in.
