Consumer Description

Windshield wipers revert to 4 second intermittent delay after approximately 1 minute, regardless of the speed setting that was selected. E.G. Driving through heavy rain and sleet, the wipers were put onto the constant low setting. After approximately 1 minute (approximately 25 swipes), the wipers slow to a 4 second delay intermittent setting on their own, resulting in a completely obscured windshield for 4 seconds until the next wiper wipe. Changing the wiper knob to any other position resumes the newly selected position operation for another approximate minute, then reverts back to 4 second intermittent delay. With moderate or greater rain, or spray from nearby vehicles, the driver is forced to choose between operating the wiper control knob every minute, or having a completely obstructed windshield every 4 seconds. This problem has been present since the vehicle was purchased, and remains today.
