Leaking Windshield Washer Fluid

Anyone else have this problem....This past Friday my malfunction light went off for washer fluid level and everything was good. I never noticed a leak prior to this warning. I went to fill the resevoir and later in the evening the light went off again! What gives???? Is a trip to the dealer in order???

There is an oring on the pump where it sits in to the washer tank that could be leaking. Do you have the headlight washer option? I had the hose between the 2 tanks crack and leak.

I'll have to look into that o ring. I don't have the headlight washer option on my car. Is this common for the o ring to go out?

If it leaks when you run the pump, then it would be a bad hose. If it leaks down just sitting parked, then the oring on the pump is most likely.
