Knock on wood (thanks for the suggestion primetime) I've not had any issues. It's pretty hard to believe given the history some have had. I've paid my dues with other vehicles big time, maybe it's my turn (at least for a while) to be trouble free. I like the idea of running the washers (and trying to leave the fluid on the windshield without being wiped off) before shutting the car off when it's left overnight, thanks for that one motordavid.
