Has anyone else noticed this?

When making a sharp turn, there is a very noticeable smell of washer fluid in my Jeep for a few seconds. The sharper the turn, and the higher the speed, the more pronounced the smell is. I can't find any leaks.

Is it a known "feature", or should I take a closer look to see why it does this?

Hummmm. Well I know that when I am wheelin and my washer fluid is full it will just run out of the spray nozzles if I am leaning to the right side.

Maybe you are taking corners fast enough to have your fluid leak and you just have a good sence of smell.

Let me know.

I have herd of washer fluid oozing out during extream flex "with after market set up" but not on-road while turning fast. I know I take exit ramps at 45mph sometimes and I dont have that problem. Humm.... Maybe fluid is leaking out by the windshield. Wish I could help more. Let us know if you find anything...
