Default wipers do not work properly sometimes

Hello so my car is a 2003 and I just got it not too long ago. I have noticed that the wipers do not go up far enough sometimes when they are on. Sometimes too far and come down smacking the bottom very violently it is like they have a mind of their own. Could it be the motor or the switch?

Have you checked to see if the bolts at holding the wipers to the motor shaft are tight?

You can download a service manual for free and you should be able to resolve the problem.

Have you found the fix for this? There seems to be alot of topics on this issue, but no one's posted the fix yet. Let me know. I was thinking about buying a wiper motor to see if it would fix it, but 150 to test is a bit much. Mine seems to be hitting the bottom and top bezel. The wiper when turned off, doesn't go all the way down. Please let us know
