The hazard
On certain vehicles, high usage of the variable pause windshield wiper function (delay mode) may eventually affect primary wiper function, rendering the wiper system inoperable. Should this occur during a rainy/snowy day, it could increase the risk of a crash, causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will add an external relay and update the wiper control software.
