I've seen many forums of people saying the same things about 2012-2014 models. This seems to be a big issue with this car.

Dodge should recall these as it's a issue with many Avenger models. The vehicle does it just idling in a park spot or driving. …”
NHTSA complaint #11302691, filed 2020-01, 104,989 miles“: window defrost and passenger heat /air.

Heated air only exits the driver's side windshield and driver's side dash vents. Problem persists through all cabin air modes, and circulations. This safety issue effects visibility and passenger safety by failing to defrost/defog windows and keeping cabin tempuratures near or below freezing during cold weather (blowing cold air into the cabin). …”
