One problem related to windshield wiper/washer linkages has been reported for the 2003 Subaru Impreza Wrx. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
When using windshield wipers in the rain, driver side windshield wiper arm slides past area of windshield and gets stuck on side pillar. This has happened five times on the same trip while driving at speeds over 50 m. P. H. On freeway. Windshield wipers then become inoperable until wiper arm is freed from side pillar. Freeing wiper arm required driving to nearest freeway exit in the rain with inoperable windshield wipers. Checked tightness of wiper arm and was found to be tight and secure. However, wiper arm was found to have a lot of "play" in it.
