NHTSA Complaint #10443765 — 2007 DODGE DURANGO

MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT TURN ON, OR GO THE SPEED WHICH I HAVE SELECTED. MY DURANGO IS ONLY A 2007 AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MECHANICS AT 3 DIFFERENT GARAGES THERE IS NO WAY MY VEHICLE IS OLD ENOUGH TO WARRANT THIS TYPE OF REPLACEMENT. IF I TURN THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON AND COMPLETE A TURN THAT SWITCHES THE TURN SIGNAL OFF THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE WIPERS TO STAY ON. THEY ALSO WORK FOR THE WINDSHIELD WIPER CLEANING BUT TURN BACK OFF ONCE THAT PROCESS IS COMPLETE. WE HAD TO DRIVE 300 MILES IN A BAD RAINSTORM AS WE WERE TRAVELING WHEN THIS FIRST OCCURRED. NOW THEY WORK FOR THE MOST PART, BUT OCCASIONALLY THEY WON'T WORK SO THIS IS DEFINITELY SOME KIND OF ISSUE THAT DODGE NEEDS TO FIX. THERE ARE POSTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY AN ISSUE WITH EITHER THE SWITCH OR THE WIRING SYSTEM. *TR
