Windshield Wiper/washer problems of the 1997 Ford F-250

The windshield washer operated spontaneously without being turned on, completely obscuring forward vision in the first incident. In the three subsequent incidents both the washers and wipers operated spontaneously without being turned on but visibility was ok because the wipers cleard the washer fluid away.

Windshield wipers work sporadically. Sometimes they come on without application, and other times they cut off without application. Dealer has replaced the switch before, but problem still exists.

Whenever windshield wipers are in use, they would fail to work properly. Would cut on or off on their own. This causes the driver to have poor visibility at a time of need.
