2 Windshield Wiper/washer problem of the 1999 Dodge Stratus

Failure Date: 05/01/2001

Washer jets and hoses for windshield wipers are clogging and result in system failure to operate. This took three service calls to resolve and should be covered as a manufacture defect. I was forced to replace motor that operates the sprayers last year and the problem continued. Per dealership, this problem is known and has not been published which means owners are being forced to pay for defective parts.
