I have a question involving my 2005 Accord EX V6. Passenger nozzle on windshield hasn't worked in months. I live in Illinois with ridiculously cold temps consistently though car is garage kept. Two days ago, ran out of washer fluid and refilled - now BOTH sides don't work. Went to Honda dealer and they want $160 to replace nozzles ($20 in parts, $140 labor???) as they are corroded. They said there was a freeze, also, but they ran with warm water. I declined the service and don't know if this is a common issue. I also have an ext warranty but they said it's null for this as the "warranty cost" for parts/labor is less than $100 (my would be deductible.) Please help! I have a hard time believing they BOTH coincidentally clogged within 2 months of each other.
Also it's worth mentioning the dealer ran all parts under hot water to remove ice... it was then they said the nozzles were corroded and needed to be replaced.
 
you need to put de-icer windshield washer fluid in during winter or they will freeze and clog and you can buy the new nozzles and have someone put them on for 10 bucks its a 5 min job
