Consumer Description

WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT COMPLETELY TURN OFF AND MOVE TO "STOWED" POSITION WHEN THE CONTROL KNOB IS TURNED OFF; THE BLADES STAY UP A LITTLE ON THE WINDSHIELD. WIPER MOTOR CONTINUES TO MAKE WIPERS MOVE SLIGHTLY. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. I JUST USED TODAY'S DATE AS T HE DATE OF THE INCIDENT BECAUSE IT HAPPENED AGAIN THIS MORNING.
