So I have my wipers on automatic setting and it was raining the other day - a good clip. And the wipers did not come on. I turned them to manual and honestly, even in high setting, they were slow. Also, there's been at least 2 occasions when the wipers (in auto mode) came on once. Anyone else having issues with their wipers?

I’ve been having the same problem with mine. When it’s raining the wipers never come on, or on rare occasions, turn on once or twice and even then it’s insufficient for the amount of rain I’m driving through. Also, the wipers turn on when it’s not raining. We’ve noticed at times it happens more often when turning corners. I don’t even bother using the auto setting since it won’t work correctly. We’ve taken it in twice to have it serviced. Both times they said it worked. The first time they told me it was because the setting wasn’t in auto, which I then had to explain was because they don’t work so we keep it off. They also said they put a hose to it and it worked. Next day, the wipers didn’t work when it was raining. We told videos and brought it back. They then told us that it was in the wrong setting, and that when it’s in auto, you have to also have the speed set to high, which we did in the videos. As soon as we drove out of the dealership, the wipers started going off while it wasn’t raining and they still don’t work as designed in the rain. Did you ever get the situation with yours resolved?

Following. Mostly, the automatic part works. A few times, it has taken them a little while.
