| Description of the problem | Below about 25 degrees fahrenheit, the windshield washer system freezes up and is unusable. This is despite having fluid certified to -45 degrees centigrade in the system. The freeze up occurs regardless of whether the vehicle is being driven or is parked. The system is always unusable below 20 degrees fahrenheit. This has been a persistent problem every winter since the vehicle was new. I have taken it to the dealership and they are unable to determine the problem. I suspect this is a defect throughout the make/model/year. |
