Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The wipers occasionally comes on when turn signal is on. the wipers came on while i was turning - changing lanes and partially blinding my view of the road. i almost crashed while making the turn and in the same time trying to turn off the wiper. since the wipers went on when the windshield is dry, it causes the wipers to streak loudly and scratch the glass. also, the wipers crossed each other and cause it to suddenly back against the glass. luckily, the wipers didn't smash the windshield. having the wipers turn on a dry windshield glass while turning is very dangerous. we were lucky that my children and i weren't hurt by this incident. *jb
