Description of the problem	Frozen wiper nozzles, frozen washer fluid reservoir, frozen hoses to and from reservoir to nozzle sprayer. Multiple occasions of the fluid being frozen, or freezing while driving. Using winter mix solution designed for upto -20. Tried other brands, still end up with freezing sprayer while driving, temperature has done this at around 20 degrees, uncertain if this is due to characteristic of aluminum body or poor design. Check valve was observed being frozen at one point with blockage, had an updated checkvalve/line kit i purchased, after reading in f150 forum for tsb for f150, yet still had issues. Vehicle remains garaged while not in use, other vehicles including older ford ranger and a plymouth neon did not have these issues although sitting outside with same wiper fluid. Significant hazard on highway to have sprayer go from working to frozen in seconds with the misting of other cars in the snow on windshield. Very dangerous situation in the dark, defrosters on high heat do not help enough to clean the windshield. Presently looking at heating methods/defrosters or insulators before winter comes. Would like a factory solution, but i cannot wait til it causes a serious wreck. A vehicle passing by blowing mist in winter will diminish visibility greatly. I've had multiple occasions of freezing sprayer/reservoir/line issues. Sometimes while stationary, other times while driving sprayer ices over. After long drive 1hr sitting in garage the engine bay heat thaws out the sprayer. Many complaints on f150 forum. Best estimate for date of occurrence(s) is winter months.
