MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS RUN CONSTANTLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON. THE WIPERS DO NOT ENGAGE WHILE ON REMOTE START. I WENT INTO THE UNCONNECTED AND TURNED OFF RAIN SENSING MODULE. THE WIPERS CONTINUED TO RUN AT A SLOW SPEED. I USED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LEVER TO TURN OFF THE WIPERS. HOWEVER, MY WIPERS CONTINUED TO RUN NO MATTER WHAT INTERVAL I USED. MY CAR WILL NOT DISPENSE WASHER FLUID WITH THE USE OF THE LEVER. I DID CHECK TO ENSURE WASHER FLUID TANK IS FILLED WITH WASHER FLUID RECOMMENDED FOR MY VEHICLE.

MY CAR ONLY 3 YEARS OLD & HAS 35,000 MILES ON IT, BUT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. WHEN I SPOKE WITH THE MECHANIC ABOUT THE REPAIR HE STATED THAT CHRYSLER/DODGE HAS MODIFIED THIS PART AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES BECAUSE OF FAILURES. HOWEVER, NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. I THINK DODGE SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR COSTS.
