I washed my car today. I also replaced the wiper blades with new ones. As I was in the middle of changing the wiper blades, I needed to move my car forward slightly to enable a relative to drive behind my car. As I started to drive forward my wipers realised they were in the "service position" and decided to put themselves away. They then hit the bonnet and the metal hooks on the end of the wiper arms smashed into the windscreen in two places. My windscreen is now completely cracked with one crack running halfway up the glass...
Skoda. Simply Clever...? Yeah right. The wipers should stay in the "service position" until you press the wiper controller again, regardless of if you start driving! My previous cars (also had rain sensing wipers) never automatically engaged the wipers unless the wiper stalk was pressed. I'm furious.
