Default Intermittant wiper pot

Is anyone else experiencing inconsistant wiper operation? The 1st click seems at least 45 seconds, the 2nd click seems okay until i use my turn signal. It will then be about every half second until it giggle it a little. And on all the next ones i've stopped trying to figure out the timing. It seems like i have a faulty pot switch in my RT.
Please chime in if you are having this same problem. Thanks.

On my Magnum I had a problem that on the second click it would randomly start continuous wiping and then go back to intermittent. The dealer diagnosed it as a defective wiper switch in the column and replaced it. It has been good since (about 2 months). The only problem I had was that the dealer wouldn't do anything about it until they actually witnessed the problem which was a little inconvenient.

Thanks for the response redwagon. I guess i am going to have them look at it. I hate the idea of my new car slowly getting torn apart by various technicians over time. Im afraid of opening the can of worms that might fester.
Thanks again.
