Description of the problem	"takata recall" windshield wipers come on randomly, they will speed up and slow down. They will not turn off even when car is parked and key is out of ignition. This is a very serious safety hazard. I have had to drive down the road when it is not raining and the windshield wipers turn on by themselves. I am concerned this will also drain my battery and/or be a fire hazard. This has happened while driving, sitting stationary, and when car is completely off. I do not have a document to upload as i was driving but i can take a video if needed.
