Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My windshield wipers have a wiring problem. when the switch is turned, they work sometimes and sometimes they do not. they often do not work in the rain but on dry days they will come on. after doing some research, i have discovered that water is getting in the wiring harness, and the device had to be shaken in order for the wipers to come back on. windshield wipers that will not work in the rain seems pretty ridiculous to me. there was a recall on earlier year models that have almost identical wiring. the wipers not working has put me in several serious situations. *ak
