Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“On the 2010 Lexus RX350 there is a design flaw with the wiper/washer system. When traveling with high winds or at high speeds the washers do not work on the upper part of the windshield, hence it can be difficult to see. This can be a safety issue, especially when confronted with road spray in cold climates. There are no adjustment that can be made. It is a fixed nozzle.”
