Not sure if this common, intended or not...but when you have your foot on the brake pedal and your wipers are going (back & forth), you can feel the swiping of the wipers (movement) in the brake pedal...


Not sure how this is linked somehow to the brake pedal....

anyone else observed this?

thanks, Marc.

I haven't felt it in the brake pedal, but I know they are (electronically) connected. If you have the wipers on "intermittent", at a stop light when you take your foot off of the brake, you get a single swipe of the wipers, regardless of when the next 'scheduled' swipe was to take place.

 

They are linked, the wipers will swipe whenever you take your foot off the brake. They are speed sensative, but i have never actually felt it in the pedal.


Edit: Yea, what Curls said

 

I feel the shift interlock switch in my brake pedal. Kinda odd, but I've noticed this in a few other cars too.

 

I think a few people have felt it in the pedal. But it's normal. No worries. The pedal is also electronically linked since the wipers slow down when you stop and when you take your foot off the brakes, it will wipe again and resume schedule.
