Wiper failure on other Bronco years

What this problem usually is
These owners had the wipers stop working, often in the rain, which is the worst possible moment. More than half of the complaints here mention rain or a storm. This sheet is about wipers that quit working, not blades that streak.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the wiper switch (13 reports) and the wiper motor (8 reports).
Recalls and investigations
No recall on the windshield and wipers covers the 2022 model year as of Oct 2, 2026.
When it happens
Too few of these reports state a mileage to give a range.
What owners wrote
“When isnât the wipers on constant low or high they slow down after a few seconds and you can not see. You have to change the setting on the wipers then change them back to reset the wipers.”

“In heavy downpours wipers will "automatically" slow down to an unsafe speed. if you have the wipers on the fastest setting in heavy downpour, out of no where the wipers will automatically slow down to barely moving. This creates an a situation where your visibility is almost taken to zero instantaneously. This is 100% related to programming.”

“Wipers in slow and fast speeds seam to go to intermediate on their own, the only way to get them back into full wipe mode is to go back and forth between slow and fast speeds!”

“Unknown- t he wipers on the bronco do not stay at the correct speeds for severe rain or snow. If I have them on high they work for a bit and then start to slow down and make it hard to see so I have to turn them off and on again to keep the speed at a pace where I have visibility.”

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 1 of 57 reports involved a crash. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
