Windshield Washer "Sprayer" - works like ASS at hwy speed. - VIDEOS!
Hello all!
Anybody else notice this on their 300??
When the car is sitting still or at very low speed (under 15 mph), the two nozzles on the hood will provide complete coverage of the windshield when you engage the windshield washer sprayers. That's as it should be.
However, it is a different story as the car runs at higher speeds!!
Using my washer with cruise set at 55 mph, the water only hits the lower half - 50% of my windshield. That's pathetic.
And if I try using them at 65 mph (speed limit on many of my state's highways), the coverage is more like the lower one-fourth - 25% of the windshield!!! That is horrible!!
And NOT very safe if you ask me. I live in a "winter" state and quite often the salt and spray from the roads and travelling cars put a nice blanket of "crud" on the windshield. Trying to clean this off at 65 mph is somewhat difficult when the water only hits the very "bottom" of the windshield.
Why couldn't DMC have went with sprayers that were integrated into the wiper??
Anybody else notice this??
