QUESTION: I'm talking about the passengers windows in the rear of the car. The rear window all the way in the back defrost fine.

Answer
On the instrument panel you will see the AUTO button and just below it the FRONT button which is for windshield defrost. Just below the front defrost button you will see the REAR button which is for the rear window defrosters.

Does the rear button illuminate when you press it ?.

You have a problem either with the rear defog relay and or the REAR INTEGRATION MODULE or you have a broken grid line on the back window which is those lines that go across the rear window.
