Question:

windshield wipers wont turn off properly?

I have a 2005 Jaguar X type 3.0 Automatic Transmission and when I turn my windshield wipers on they function normally but when I turn the switch off they will continue to run for 10-15 seconds then stop at a random position on the windshield. Anybody have any idea what the problem could be? Thank You

Answer:

snow tires have a deeper and wider tread to bush away snow, summer tires have a grip type tread so that its better control, and all weather tires have a little bit of everything
The differences are in what the tires are made of and the design of the tires. Summer tires are spacifically designed for dry summer driving and perform the best in them conditions, same with the winter tires, but they are designed for snow and ice conditions. All weather tires are designed to handle all conditions respectivly. I would recomend the all weather tires there.
Check for a factory recall first. The electric motor/gearbox assembly that drives the wipers needs to be replaced, the gearbox has several contacts in it and it has failed. It can probably be repaired, but is not cost effective unless you can do it at home. Items like this are not meant to be repaired, just replaced.
What is your life worth? Sticking to Planet Earth is worth something, right? Bridgestone Blizzaks are worth the money. I get four extra rims and keep them mounted year round.
