This is the second time in 2 years that the windshield wiper multi-function switch on the end of the turn signal arm has failed. Washer switch on arm still works, but wipers do not work in any mode. I have contacted a local Ford dealer and they will only offer to replace again for around $300

The turn indicator cannot be turned on when steering wheel is at the 11 and 2 O'clock positions. Additionally, the turn signal when engaged, does not allow much movement of the steering wheel before signal cancels.
