Windshield leaked water inside of dashboard. Dealer inspected the vehicle. However, dealer could not find the cause of problem.

May 2004

Wipers work intermittently. Can cause accident when they are not working. Have not yet been able to determine cause of failure due to not being able to recreate failure mode. Work great when you don't need them, but when it is raining they almost always fail!
