Ever get frozen out of your car? That's the worst.
Ever get frozen out of your car? That's the worst.
Yes! After an evening/overnight sleet/ice storm. The truck was covered in a 1/4" or more ice glaze and the sleet had penetrated into the rubber door seals freezing them to the door/doorframe. I chipped as much of the ice off as I could without hurting the paint then used lukewarm water over the course of another half hour to eventually get the door open. It took most of another hour with engine running (diesels take a while to warm up) and defroster blowing to break the ice free of the windshield so I could drive it. Worst iced up adventure I ever had. Glad it happened at home.
