    That doesn't sound right...I'm guessing clogged nozzle or something that others have suggested.

    Do you live in an area that's cold? I've had the issue with my jeep the reservoir would be full of windshield fluid and nothing or very little would come out. I believe once it was warmer it was fixed on its own.

    It's totally a package thing. The sensor on the back of the mirror is for the auto dim on the mirror. I have a blank spot on my dash where the sensor should go...

    I opted to not go with the premium because the sun roof touched my head while driving, but got the tech. Sensor is a premium feature.

    It shouldn’t spray over the window but should at generally cover almost to the top. Were the lines defrosted? Anytime I a service center tops off my wife’s Acura her lines freeze. Takes all night in the garage to thaw out. Not all places use -20 fluid in the winter.

    Basically you would leave your lights in “auto” and they would turn off/on based in daylight.

    That is part of the premium package. The sensor is in the passenger tweeter/dash grille. The blank filler button/plug is often the source of “mystery” rattles for folks.

    I just got used to it from my old cars, my 2004, 2008 and 2016 various makes all had it. I really don't need it.... Just annoying if I leave the lights on during the day and all the lights on the dash/radio are dimmed.

    I would of considered premium if there was an option w/o the sunroof, at 5'11" that extra inch or so really matters.
