Windshield wiper won't return to original position

IE. Ghost noises... Clicks/clacks.... My 2020 Escape often does the same.. Been that way since I purchased. Drives me nuts... Check and see if it does it when you don't have the fob in your pocket..

I love experiments. Walked by without the fob - no click noises. Walked by with the fob, no click noises.

I need to identify the process to park the right side wiper at the dot. So far I haven't identified a pattern.

If Toyota decided to go back to making a small, affordable truck with much better gas mileage, I'd get a Toyota again. The new Tacomas don't scratch that itch.

I had this problem with my '25 Lobo. It started at a charity car wash. One of the people drying my truck had his towel accidentally catch on the end of the passenger side wiper blade. That lifted it slightly and it never returned fully despite various efforts on my part. A couple of days ago I took it in for scheduled maintenance and asked that they address this issue. I don't know what they did, but it seems to be fine now. It couldn't have been difficult because they also changed the oil and filter, rotated the tires, and inspected everything in under an hour.
