Intermittent Wiper not working - Non-OEM Windscreen?

Hi All

I'm looking for a bit of advice, if that's ok? I bought my RAV4 last year second hand from Bristol Motors. I later discovered that the intermittent wipers don't work, it's all or nothing.

After putting up with it for a few months I took it into my local Toyota service centre and they said they can't fix it under warranty because it isn't a Toyota windscreen which is why the intermittent wipers don't work. Is this really a thing? Would the sensor pad really not work on an aftermarket windscreen?

Not sure whether to proceed with getting it sorted which could mean forking out for a whole new windscreen, or just putting up with it!

Many thanks in advance
