I have a 2003 Toyota Corolla (bought in 2002) that has about 74K miles on it. I've been doing proper maintenance for the most part. (brakes, new tires, regular oil and filter changes, etc.) The inside of my windshield gets frosty sometimes. It is not every day. I'm in southern New England. My husband noted a sweet smell in my car so he thought that maybe my antifreeze is leaking but he hasn't had a chance to check it out.
What could this problem be with my car?
take it to toyoya its still under warrenty so they can fix it !

sounds like the heater core may have a leak
yep, sweet smell is antifreeze. You will notice it more with the defrosters on, it will fog up the inside of the windsheild.
It needs the heater core replaced.
The Estimator calls for 6.8 hours to do that job.

pull up the floor mat and see if the floor is wet, if it is, then probably the heater core is leaking.
get radiator checked out might have preasure leak
I agree with the others....
It sounds like your heater core.
I hope it is under warranty still.
