Windshield washer system does not adequately dispense fluid to clean windshield and allow for save driving.

Windshield wiper fluid nozzle dislodged from holder, eliminating ability to spray fluid for cleaning windshield while driving. This prevents having clear vision while driving unless driver stops frequently to get out and clean windshield. Potential hazard condition.

The windshield washer nozzle disc pops out of its nozzle assebly making the windshield fluid spray pur out rather than properly spray the windshield inorder to properly clear the viewing area. Epecially needed during winter season of salt/slush spray from forward vehicle on road/hwy operation. (basically the vehicle in front of your vehicles tires sprays salt/slush spray up on your windshiel, and without the windshield sprayer working correctly you can't see the road.

Consumer states: took in vehicle on 5 separate times for transmission, whining noise was heard, almost like the engine was overheating. Was on highway, and no matter how much gas consumer gave it vehicle wouldn't move. When giving it more gas the engine would rev but still wouldn't go. Before problems with transmission, at a separate time, something with the computer went wrong. It completely shut down. Such as gas gauge showed empty tank and speedometer went to zero. When at a stop idle seems to drop and when accelerating from stop, vehicle hestiates and lurches. Transaxle speed sensor replaced. Transmission control module reprogramed due to whining noise. Hood won't open. Hood cable readjusted. Driver and passenger washer nozzle missing and replaced. Steering wheel making noise. Shaft boot greased. Service engine soon (ses) light on. Oxygen sensor was contaminated and replaced.

I have also found a metal clanking sound coming from the front driverã‚s side of the vehicle when shifting the car out of park, or reverse. It still continues to have problems between the speeds of 12 to 30 mph, again the problem presents itself mostly when the vehicle is coasting and losing momentum. The vehicle would be slowing down without any aid of braking of any kind and as the vehicle would attempt to down shift, it would sometimes make a clanking noise, or buck, or in the most extreme cases completely stall out. Also the wiper sprayers have broken twice, and the dealer expects them to break again.
