Question Speed Dependent Wipers

Has anyone noticed any change in their wiper speed as your speed down the road increases? I have not been able to tell any difference no matter what setting I have the wipers on.


From the manual -
Speed dependent wipers: When the wiper control is on, the speed of the wipers will automatically adjust with the vehicle speed. The faster your vehicle is travelling the faster the wipers will go.

The wiper interval speeds vary OK with vehicle speed on my XLT.

you can barely notice the speed dependant wipers, or so I hear. it doesn't rain here in SoCal, so I may never find out.

I can't tell any difference either. Not yet, anyway. Here in New Mexico we're in the throes of a long-term drought, so I just haven't driven in enough rain yet to be able to say for sure that they're working correctly. However, so far, with the little rain I've driven in, I can't tell any speed changes at all.
