For the past couple of months the manual windshield wiper and the high windshield wiper settings would not work, so I got by with just the intermittent and low settings. In the past two weeks these two settings have worked only after I had them turned on for a while, and just yesterday both of these settings would not come on at all when I turned them on. The windshield wiper fluid will still squirt out when I pull the windshield wiper lever towards me (the lever located on the right of the steering column) but the wipers don't work under this setting either.
Does anyone have any hints/clues as to how I could fix this?
Thanks.

 

Go to the dealership!
Sorry not trying to be a wiseguy or anything but it sounds like the switch is deffective.

 

Just wondering what was the out come

 

i have a question about the wipers.... my car has under 7000 miles and the wipers are already bad. they just suck. will the dealer replace them under warranty or will i have to buy new ones? if i have to buy new ones, which do u guys recommend and what size?

Dude...I'm lucky to get 9-12 months on my wipers (Florida Sun & Heat sucks rocks)

If I use Rain-X, I get about half that (I think there is something in the formula that eats away at the rubber)

 

there was a TSB about bad factory windshield wiper fluid that would eat away the rubber in the wiper fluid rubber hoses. could it be this?

 

well i dont use rain-x but i do use the wiper fluid even though im better off not using it. it just makes it worse. can anyone check up on that TSB?

 

Curnails did you ever get your wipers fixed, if so what was the problem.

 

oh yea
the rain-X and those things will damage ur wipers and become ineffective...

 

ok so will the dealer replace my wiper blades for free? if not, which wiper blade do u guys recommend?

 

wiper blades...it's considered wear and tear...shouldn't be replaced for free...

i recommend bosch...very gd and well trusted

 

I had a recall on my wipers because the fluid that it came with ate through the rubber on the wipers. I would call the dealer and ask them to replace them under recall. If nothing else I would get the new Bosch wipers, a little pricey at 18 a piece but very quiet!

 

get PIAA silicon blade...

 

yup wiper blades is consider wear and tear, so i don't think they will replace it for you for free.

how much is the PIAA silicon blade and where can i get the PIAA & BOSCH wiper ??

 

local auto store will be fine...bosch are selling everywhere
