Why does cold air on my TOYOTA 86 come off as hot ? Without AC on.

Hi guys I'm new to the forum and a couple strange things have been happening with my new toyota 86 FT . I live in argentina, and bought the car a couple weeks ago. Strange and odd things started happening from High fuel consumption , when I talk about high fuel consumption I mean average of 18Litres for 100km which is totally unacceptable.
Then something which called my attention was, that as soon as someone got inside the car, the windshield and all the windows started to slowly get damp and steamy. I don't know why. If water came inside the car by some reason. I checked and the rubber grummets from the rearside of the car which the dealer had to put in place at the pre inspection weren't settled in place. So this week I'm going for those 2 rubber grummets to be placed in the rear end of the car. Maybe some water vapor came inside. But don't think so.
I just want to know if any of you are going through this . FInally whenever I shift the knob on the HVAC system without air conditioning on instead of COLD air getting inside the cabin I feel the air getting inside is totally warm like if I was using the knob for heating. Like the only way for cold air to get inside is turning on AC totally odd.
Is this a factory issue ? what should I do
