Hello,

Just posting ifor the benefit of others who may be having this same issue. I never thought to try the windshield washer when I recently bought my 2019 GT2 until a couple days ago. We are heading into the winter season here in the tundra aka Minnesnowta and I wanted to make sure that I had the proper window wash solution in the car to go below 0 degrees for cold weather use. I tried the washer and it did not spray. I checked and filled the reservoir but it still will not spray nor do I hear a pump even trying. Since I already noticed the stop/start system did not work I thought it time to bring it in for service under warranty. It is scheduled for 12-14-2021 and I will update the thread with the resolution for both issues. I am not a huge fan of the stop/start function but I can always defeat it when I don't want to use it and from what I have read it does not work that much anyways since parameters are so restrictive for it to function properly. As a side note, I am having the 'Quantum Logic-No sound' issue as well (//stingerforumDOTorg/threads/no-audio-from-infotainment.3758/) and the 'Coolant Smell' issue (//stingerforumDOTorg/threads/coolant-smell.11308/) as well but I don't expect anything to be resolved with either of them as they are intermittent but I plan to log them while the car is at the dealer.

i dont know for sure, but arent there little hoses that connect to the windshield wipers... are they connected properly, have you lifted the hood to see where the solution is going?
in addition to your other problems, you may want to check your coolant level --should be between the F and the L.
cant wait to hear when someone finds out whats wrong with auto start stop, not that i want to use it, i just know it stopped working.
my stinger is pretty new and yesterday i had the back left window motor replaced.
the trunk thunk thing i just used electrical tape on the contact points like the guys here told me to and it worked to fix most of the hatch rattle.
 
I will scope out the washer hoses for sure. I am not a huge fan of the start/stop either but I figure it should work when and if I want to use it. I will be curious how they deal with that or the intermittent radio issue...
 
If you're not even hearing the pump going, then your problem is mechanical/electrical and not a disconnected hose (like I had: and I thought back and realized that in wiping down my engineroom with a terrycloth bath towel, I had passed over that hose too vigorously and pulled it loose: fluid was pumping forward and down in the neighborhood of my RF suspension, heh). The pump is quite loud: if it is working, you'll hear it for sure.

ISG will work when it "wants" too. I always turn it off first thing after startup.
