"Washer Fluid Low"
I noticed my dic display was showing a "washer fluid low" warning yesterday.
I have never used my windshield wipers, let alone my washer fluid...
Guess it takes 5.5 years for it to dry the tank to the point if hitting the warning indication...

The sensor may have gotten dirty. Suck any fluid that is in there out then pull the sensor straight out of the hole in the back. Wipe it down good and simply push it back in. It has to go in with a certain side up so if the message comes back after filling, turn the sensor 180 degrees.

Mine is empty also 
, but no warning. I think I may have disconnected something a year or so ago, I'll have to look at it to pass along any info. A feature I have yet to use on purpose.:o

You should use it from time to time, will keep the pump working and the motor for the wipers from ceasing. I turn my on just before I get ready to wash the car and push a few squirts of windshield washer fluid . takes a few seconds and can save you a few dollars down the road

Known bug.
Under hard acceleration you will force washer fluid up through the lines and it winds up on the cowl in front of the windshield.
So you are using some (if you drive it with gusto) even when you dont "use" any.

It has not done it in a little while though. I need to check tonight, but I think my tank is just low. Toque
