Default Winshield washer

My windshield washer doesn't spray. I haven't seem other Z clean their windshield, but everytime I use them, the cleaner fluid just kind of running out, rather than spray out. Is this normal? Or my washer doesn't pump enough pressure to shoot the cleaner fluid out? It is the same for both my front and rear washer, and it makes it very difficult when I try to clean my glasses.

Anybody experienced the same?

You may want to check the spray nozzle on the wiper. It may be clogged with dirt.

But, beware, not to use the window washer unless it is extremely necessary because it will wash the: roof top, side windows and side mirrors in addition to the windshield while the car is moving.

Make sure you do not mistakenly toggle the lever to activate the washer when your car is clean.

Yes, but first check your reservoir, you may just be low on fluid (or have a leak).

But I don't think it's low on fluid because there is a warning light for that, and if it's leaking, my garage floor will be wet.

Well, guess I'll have to take it to the dealer when I have time......
