The consumer states that the windsheild wipers while on high or low speed will go into intermittent mode. Which started happening after he had purchased the vehicle. (each time he would take the vehicle in for repairs, it would work okay) the consumer had taken the vehicle back to the dealer and it went on intermittent mode while on high or low speed wiper mode. They installed switch part #xw3Z-13359-caswitch 357698-1ea, which worked for a while, but eventually started again.-some what after repair, but less than often
