Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The windshield wiper nozzle that dispenses the wiper fluid is poorly designed. The passenger side nozzle shoots >50% of the fluid off my car and onto the guy in the lane to my right. The driver side nozzle barely gets any good cleaning effect on the driver side for the same reason - it shoots far to the right. Not only do I have to use way more fluid than necessary just to clean the windshield from debris or bugs, but I also don't get a *good* clean doing so. I don't feel entirely safe with the current implementation, and believe the system is greatly flawed.”

NHTSA complaint #11742169, filed 2026-06

“Highest windshield wiper speed isn't nearly as fast as it should be. Even in a mild/moderate rainstorm the vehicle speed has to be slowed drastically to be able to drive safely because the windshield wipers aren't effectively wiping away the rain. In a mild rainstorm, speed of the car is maybe 40mph in which the wipers can somewhat keep up. But are practically useless at highway speeds 60mph+ even during light rainstorms, visibility is majorly decreased even on the highest windshield setting.”
