Default Wipers

Hey guys just a quick question, I have a 08 and I was just wondering if there is a way to stop that last pass when you use the washer fluid. I cant stand that one final delayed swipe.

On mine it is called a 'courtesy wipe' and is able to be turned off in the productivity screen. I don't know if you have that, but on mine I can turn it off.

Subscribing to this, I'd like to know how to turn mine off as well. Just plain annoying to me.

I'd have to agree that last wipe is a pain, our 2008 edge does it too. As far as i know there's no way to turn it off, the guy who said he can has a 2011 with the fancy computer thingy lol.
