Consumer Description

No lamp messages, however the front and rear windshield wipers will not stop when put in the off position. Windshield sprayers will not activate. I've had to pull the fuses to the wipers, though now the wipers work when turned on, but will not seat themselves nor does the sprayer mechanism work still. In neither situation of fuses in or not, I have no intermittent on options for either front or back windshield wipers. When driving, if I get spashed with snow/slush, I lose all visibility; and can only blindly pull over use a spray bottle and hand towel to clean my windows. I have been finding that this is a problem with not just my vehicle, but that it is a repeat problem for multiple people with the same car make and model. I hope nobody is ran over because a driver can't see due to faulty windshield wiper controls.
