The windsheild wipers, when turned off, will return to the home position as upright, not tucked under the hood as designed. So they are pretty much directly in front of the passenger and driver. Once in a while they will turn off correctly, but then the next time, they won't.

This is driving my wife, so therefore me, nuts. What can be done, short of having someone spend hours (and therefore $) in diagnosing? Somebody else has had to have this problem with the number of these vans that are out there.
