Your windshield wiper fluid reservoir cracked and leaked out all the fluid, leaving you unable to clean your windshield—a safety issue that affects visibility while driving. At 6.5 years and 34,000 miles, the reservoir failed and your car is at the dealer waiting for a replacement part.

Your dashboard's black leather trim is separating from the base of the windshield, exposing white material underneath. This white surface reflects sunlight onto your windshield, creating distracting glare and visual artifacts in your line of sight while driving. As the separation worsens, the distraction becomes more severe. Fixing this will likely require a full dashboard replacement, which is expensive.
