2017 windshield squirter issues
So I just noticed my squirters are barely squirting up my windshield. They hit just above where my wipers are in the stowed position! I havent been able to clean the top half of my windshield. This seems to be worse when I am at highway speed. When parked it seems to squirt higher!

You can also try with the hood up and see if ant water is coming out from underneath. I’ve had to replace both the nozzles on our Edge due to them freezing and cracking. Low pressure was the first obvious sign.
Now I’ve learned to start adding 0°F wiper fluid in November...

Mine was caused by the cheap plastic they used on the nozzles and the heat and cool factor on the plastic. I changed the driver side out on my 12 and my 16 never the passenger side. Both were a diesel 6.7 though so don't know if heat would bother your truck being gas or not..They would crack and spray more under the hood then on the window lol.

Not sure if they changed the plastic squirters for 2017s but on my 2011 and 2015 diesels, I replaced the plastic squirters every few years. Broke under the hood and half the windshield fluid leaked there. Plenty of 2011 to 2016 threads and pictures if you search. Had not read this on the 2017 to 2019s yet.
