What owners wrote
Windshield wipers will come on by themselves while the switch is off, it will also turn off while in the middle of driving and stop in the middle of the windshield becoming in-operable & no visibility! I was driving on the freeway at 65 MPH during rush hour, in the pouring rain when they stopped on me! Air conditioner) whenever we start up the car, a mildew smell comes out of the vents. This could be a health hazzard for people with lung problems.
Windshield wipers worked intermittently. The multi function switch was replaced after being serviced on numerous occasions.
