I had this happen to me recently and was able to fix it for free too. Rare on these cars. What has probably happened is that water has made its way into the box next to the wiper motor that contains the circuit board that controls the wipers. You should take out the whole wiper assembly so you can get access to the black box. Take out the screws and you may see some water inside. I dumped the water and poured rubbing alcohol all over the circuit board to dry it out. Put it all back together and you should be good.
