Vanishing windshield washer fluid

[bobschantz]

When I got my T-Bird I noticed the washer fluid tank wasn't full so I bought a bottle of "Genuine Motorcraft Washer Fluid" and topped it off. A few days later it was a little low again and I figured it just settled into the system or something and topped it off again.
Today I looked at it again and it was way low.
Here's the weird part: I've never even used the washers! So where's the fluid going? There's never a puddle or stain under the car so it isn't leaking.
I guess it's not a major problem but at $5.50 a pop I don't want to keep pouring bottles of washer fluid into oblivion.

Bob, I have the same problem with my 02. I am waiting till the snow melts and take it to the dealer and have it checked out. I wonder if this is a common problem?

I'm going to look more closely under the spot where the tank is and see if I can find any evidence of a leak.
Will post my findings.

I looked carefully for any sign of a leak and didn't find one.
I made note of where the fluid level is and will check it at a later date.
The jury is still out on this one, it's strange to say the least.

They replaced a hose on mine today for the same problem. Lets see if it corrects it.

I have a 2003 T-bird with the same problem. Have to keep adding fluid. No sign of leak. The dealer has checked it, but can't find what may be wrong. They have it now, so will have to wait till I get it back.
