NHTSA Complaint #10744693 — 2006 CADILLAC CTS

TURNED ON WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND WINDSHIELD WASHER MOTOR STARTING SPRAYING CLEANER. I TRIED TURNING OFF THE WIPERS AND EVEN CHANGING THE WIPER SPEEDS BUT THE MOTOR KEEPS TRYING TO SPRAY CLEANER. EVENTUALLY I RAN OUT OF CLEANER BUT YOU CAN STILL HEAR THE MOTOR RUNNING WHEN THE WIPERS ARE ON. PULLED OVER AND SHUT CAR OFF, WAITED 5 MINUTES AND STARTED CAR AGAIN BUT THE WASHER MOTOR STILL COMES ON WHEN I TURN ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THIS WAS DANGEROUS AS IT JUST FLOODED MY VIEW WITH WIPER FLUID. NOT SURE IF WIPER WASHER MOTOR WILL BURN OUT AND CAUSE OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES. MA 10/16/15 UPDATED 12/13/2017*CN
