WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMITTENTLY - SOMETIMES DON'T STOP WHEN TURNED OFF - SOMETIMES STOP WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T, AND THAT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE IN THE RAIN. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME - EVEN WHEN TURNED OFF THEY START BY THEMSELVES. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR OTHER YEAR VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT NOT THE 1988. *TR
