Same reason why the global temperature is rising, the greenhouse effect.
Again: cracked window gets the job done. Letting hot air out is not witchcraft. The issue is the part where water also goes in.
And in places where winter exists, keeping the let-heat-out mechanism shut when the car is in use.
There's those side window rain guards, but they make it much easier to steal the vehicle.
Was thinking of getting these for my car, can you explain how they make it easier to steal?
You're opening your windows leaving a gap. It's much easier to get a tool in to open the door vs a sealed up vehicle.
How much of a risk this is depends on where and how long you're leaving your car though.
Note that no gap doesn’t mean no problem, just slightly harder.
That's caused by leaving a gap though, not by the rain guards themselves. You aren't really answering the question.
