Rear wiper

[Jim Glass]

Yesterday I was a little peeved when my rear wiper didn’t shoot out any fluid to clean it. My immediate reasoning said it must be plugged since I could hear the pump running. The front produced a meager spray but sufficient to clean the windshield. So today I went to check out the problem only to discover the absence of any fluid in the bottle! Duh! Then I realized that over the past YEAR I had never added any fluid to the bottle! ?

I’m lazy to look it up, does the rear use the same reservoir as the front?

The alert message didn’t pop up?

Yes.

The system should prompt an alert if the fluid is low enough

It show show on the instrument cluster.. not sure of it’s location. Here is a screen shot from the supplemental guide showing the symbol.

I never added washer fluid in my first year of ownership. I sure as heck hope the dealer topped off the reservoir when they did the 1 year maintenance last week ?
I’d check it more often, but the reservoir is in the frunk. Which is too much of a pain to access without a remote frunk release ????????????????

What I thought was fixed by adding fluid turned out to be too simple, too easy. This am went out and tried it only to have my left leg covered in fluid. The bottle is empty and a visit to the dealer is scheduled for Wednesday.
