| Description of the problem | While driving or stationary of the vehicle. When spraying water on the windshield from the windshield washer sprayers, it only sprays on the bottom of the windshield and does not cover the entire windshield. You have to continuously spray water so the wipers can spread the water on the windshield. But doing this does not always make the windshield clean. This is a huge safety concern. The water sprays on the underside of the hood and then onto the windshield. The dealer has not yet been advised of this issue. The way the washer sprayers are mounted, i doubt that the problem can be easily fixed. |
