Engine light came on. An audible click, click, click noise behind console. Front windshield wipers lag on left hand sweep. Took it to dealer, they kept it 2 days and could not duplicate the problem. I'll go back when it happens again.

Engine light on again, shut it off. Battery dead next morning. Had it towed to dealer. Today they said it's the total integrated power module aka tipM. It controlls all electrical signals to everything, including wipers a/c and engine. It took over a week to locate a TIPM, apparently manufacturer has them backordered. Got it home, so far everything works.
