Consumer Description

WIPERS WILL COME ON WITH SWITCH IN OFF POSTION. WASHERS WILL NOT WORK WHEN WIPERS ARE ON BUT WILL SLOW WIPER SPEED. WIPER SPEED WILL NOT CHANGE FROM SLOW TO FAST WITHOUT JIGGLING THE SWITCH. WIPERS WILL CHANGE SPEED WHEN USING TURN SIGNAL. I AM CONCERNED THEY WILL FAIL COMPLETELY AND AM AWARE OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.
