Consumer Description

WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS AROUND 0-15 THE WINDWASHER FLUID WILL NOT SPRAY OUT OF THE NOZZLES BECAUSE THE NOZZLES FREEZE UP ON THE CAR.. SO WHEN YOU'RE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY YOU CANNOT USE YOUR WINDOW WASHER FLUID IT WILL NOT SPRAY OUT OF THE CAR AND YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING BECAUSE THE WINDOW DOESN'T BECOME CLEAN FROM ROAD SALT.. I HAVE CALL GM ON THIS ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT
