body metal slicing windshield fluid hose

After I got home from the dealership 150+ miles away, I stopped at a gas station & discovered I had no windshield fluid. So I bought some & as soon as I filled it & tried to use it, little to no fluid came out. I discovered it was on the ground. I had someone activate the fluid dispensing inside & saw the body had sliced through the hose. I had to buy new hose & route it inside the engine bay on the outside & had to ziptie to a hole in the body & an engine mount.
