Ever since I have had my truck the windshield wipers have been very inconsistant. Sometimes they turn on when I want them to, and sometimes they do not turn on. Even when they do turn on they turn off in the middle of use. This has become a great hassle for me, because when they do not turn on when it is raining my visibility is very restricted. This has been very dangerous, for example, one time I was driving on the freeway and it was pouring down rain and my windshield wipers stopped working, and I could hardly see the road in front of me.
