| Description of the problem | The wiper and washers do not operate as intended. Operation is sporadic. Washers do not respond to the control. They turn on by themselves, usually after starting the car and will empty the washer fluid reservoir. The wipers do not respond to the controls. They too may turn on at anytime on their own. But they do not turn on when you operate the switch to turn them on. These occurrences happen regardless of the car being in park or in gear. After 2 weeks in the dealership, they have been unable to solve the problem and have been replacing various parts, trial and error, to no avail. |
