NHTSA Complaint #11510826 — 2022 FORD BRONCO

With the windshield wipers on in the continuous low setting, the wipers will slow down and stop after a minute or two of operation. This has happened more than once while driving in the rain. The wipers were not obstructed, no snow/ice (40 to 50 degrees outside) and it was raining, so the windshield was not dry. This stopping of the wipers caused me to remove one hand from the steering wheel, and fiddle with the wiper controls to get the wipers to start back up, while the rain outside was obscuring my vision. I switched the wipers off and back to the continuous setting, and the same thing happened after a few more minutes, the wipers slowed down and stopped. The wipers were never on the intermittent setting, always on continuous setting. I don't find it safe to be driving in the rain with these wipers, since I do need both hands on the wheel, incase there is a pooling of water on the road, which can pull the vehicle to one side and I need both hands to correct, as well as loss of visibility when the windshield fills with rain when the wipers stop.
