Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL. AT RANDOM MOMENTS WITHOUT HITTING THE WIPPER SWITCH AT ALL THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL COME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. SOMETIMES IF I TURN MY BLINKER ON WHICH IS A OPPOSITE STICK THEY WILL ACTIVATE. WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN MY LIGHTS WILL FLICKER VERY BRIEFLY. I HAVE HAD NO KIND OF ALTERATIONS DONE TO THE VEHICLE COSMETIC OR ELECTRICAL SO I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS. AND YES EVERY TIME IT HAPPENS IT'S WHILE THE VIC IS IN MOTION.
