Unfortunately, several cars made today are having these problems, and you have found one of them. Very likely you are in the market for a new wiper motor.
Be blessed.
Sounds like what's called a park switch. If you can get one it is not that hard to change. It is inside the wiper motor you may want to change the whole motor if you can find one in a salvage yard.
Could be either one. The wiper switch could be providing power, and there is a park switch in the motor that provides power until the wiper arms "park". You may be able to disconnect the wiper switch to find out. Chances are you'll need a wiring diagram to test the circuits.
This sounds like an issue with your ignition switch. Basically what is happening here is that you are shutting off your vehicle, but the ignition switch is not working correctly and is allowing certain accessories to stay on.
It has auto wiper control. Yank your wiper stick 1 notch down. The windshield should be free of rain droplets or else it would think it is still raining and operate it in auto mode. In auto mode it will shut off when it doesn't sense rain droplets on the windshield or removing the key from the ignition. Once it is off, it can only operate in auto mode by moving the lever 1 notch up while raining. Yours must be in the 1st speed manual selected position of the lever. Every time the ignition is switched on the wiper operates regardless until key is removed from the switch.
Try swapping the wiper relay with a similar one in the fuse box. If no help, the body computer may have a stuck high relay control output. Check for poor wiring grounds near the body computer and near the wiper motor. Check the wiper motor auto-park switch for looseness.
