Maybe the common problem with the control module or whatever for the wipers getting corroded from water leaks can be causing this issue.

I had/having some problems with the wipers on the '05 SE. The they were "temperamental". Had the youngest son look at it. He said the "transmission" (linkage) was "worn out". He thought it had maybe happened when there was ice on the windshield. So, we're waiting for the part from Amazon. -BC
