Question Windshield Washer no spray (very low flow)

Did anyone had that?
Checked it yesterday, enough washer fluid - still original, no flow to wash windshield very slow dripping from spray.
I can hear the pump running, but no result. Could it be clog?

Funny, I've had my 07RL now for well over one year and didn't realize until six months ago that the wiper fluid never worked. The container is completely full from original delivery, but nothing comes out when I attempt to clean the windshield. I keep meaning to bring it in, but haven't yet. Probably should before winter driving season.

Yes, this is my plan as well. Only 8 month vehicle, they should definitely fix it.
Do not know, how long it was like it, cause washing my windshield by hand twice a week. Cause of heat wave, didn't get a chance to wash it by hand, and found the problem.
Anyway, scheduled dealership appointment on Monday, will let you know how it goes.

I have developed this problem, too, but only during the winter. It's very aggravating.

THanks a lot for the response neuronbob.

Finally fixed. According to a dealer that hose was kinked, probably during A-spec installation and inspection. Now all working again.
