While driving home during a rain storm my windshield wipers started to malfunction. I had them on an intermittent speed and they all of sudden went to high. Once I was home. I attempted to turn my wipers off and they only went to low. I am unable to turn my wipers off I had to remove the fuse. If I need my wipers I must put the fuse back in. I am working now to determine if it is the multiple function switch that has gone bad. Upon looking up data about my vehicle on line I found trucks dating back to the mid 90's with the same issue.
Wipers won't shut off. Motor cover with controller module only available at dealer for $100+. Definitely a manufacturer defect. Truck has 55000 miles.
