I recently filled up my windshield wiper fluid tank to the max. As I was driving, my visibility was impaired by dirt/dust. I activated my wipers to clean the front windshield and nothing came out. I had to pull over on the highway because I had difficulty seeing. When I opened the front hood to check my fluid level, it was empty. I used a bottle of water to clean the front windshield. I purchased another bottle and when I was filling up the wiper fluid tank, it started to come out of the bottom of the vehicle. I took it to the dealership and was told that it was cracked and needed to be replaced. They said I must have hit something on the road. The problem with that is there is no other visible damage underneath the vehicle. A mechanic told me that he has been seeing numerous Rogues coming in with the same problem: cracked windshield wiper fluid reservoirs.
