This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Windshield wipers have to work on high speed for a while before they can operate on normal speed. Vehicle been to dealer on four occasions, and problem still occurring. Feel free to provide any further information.
Windshield wipers occsaionally fail to operate at low speed or single swipe mode due to wiper sticking on windshield and motor horsepower/torque insufficient to break "seal."
Windshield wipers will not operate in the wash/mist/delay or low speed mode until they are switched to high speed mode.after the windshield wipers ar eplaced in the high speed mode the other modes will operate correctly. Also, intermittent howling sound when brakes are used.
Every now and then when turning on the windshield wipers they do not come on. Reported to dealer in September of 97. Dealer not able to duplicate the problem. In March the circuit board was replaced, but the prolbem still continued. Vehicle taken to dealer again on May 8th. Dealer could not detect the problem with vehicle.
