Description of the problem | Front wipers go off when in off postition on the steering wheel. Once issue starts happening it degrades quickly. It starts with a random wipe and over a months period degrades into the wipers randomly turning on at different speeds and different time intervals ranging from a few wipes up to 15 minutes of uncontrollable wiping. Sometimes only a single wiper blade will turn on randomly the left or right front ( once restarting car both wipers will go off randomly again). This happens when driving on all driving types street/highway/turning/stationary everything. Again the wipers are in off postition and not engaged but will randomly turn on. |
