Consumer Description

The auto wipers come on multiple times a drive without water being on the windshield. This has been dangerous because the wipers will smear material across the windshield at the wrong times creating a visibility hazard. It almost caused a wreck where it activated smearing the windshield while the sun was directly ahead. Tesla’s response was the auto wipers are in Beta mode and I should turn them off to keep them from randomly coming on. This is a challenge since you have to use the center screen to find the wipers and activate them causing one to look away from the roadway.
