please tell me the intermittent switch is hidden in the spare tire compartment or under the seat or in the glove box. just don't tell me that a $35k car was made without them. please. for the love of god and his nigerian pigme dwarf goats.

Intermittent is on the stalk, you only have one speed on it. Not sure if it's all the way up, think so but just try and you will find it.

having one speed, and being called "intermittent", is like a porsche 911 turbo with a 3 speed automatic.

...hmmmm wonder if i can still return the car....

intermintent is one click down from the off position and, yes, there are variable speeds.
the dial at the end of the stalk adjusts the speed. there should be a line next to it that gets
wider towards the bottom. the smaller end is slow and the fat end is fast.

my stalk has no dial at its end, only a button that controls the rear window spray.

my stalk works like this:

1UP = wipers on 5 second delay
1Down=wipers on 1 second delay
2Down = wipers on .5 second delay

On my car, if you push the lever up it with wipe every 10-13 second, push it down from stock not on postion, it goes quicker, and two down it goes really fast.
