Low washer fluid level warning?

Hi,

Does the car tell you when it’s low? In ICE cars I’ve always topped it up when checking the oil, but there’s no need now - for some reason ?.

Previous cars have have had headlight washers as well (together with decent headlights - but hey ho), which certainly get through fluid at a pace this time of year - hence the reminder warning.

This has just reminded me of when I got a new Citroen C5, it was a 2010 model and quite a nice car I must say. I realised that the headlight washers didn’t seem to be working. So I raised it with the garage at the first service. When I collected the car I was told that the car didn’t have them - despite the cutouts and colour coded covers in the bumper. Seems that to save production costs that they fitted the same bumper to all trim levels - despite the fact that they were an (expensive) option on the top version. So fit something to ALL cars that only 1% will have - bonkers. The vagaries of French vehicles ....
 
Was going to ask the same question of the MG 5...and I presume the answer is the same
 
The car I traded in for the MG5 was a top of the range, all bells and whistles 2015 Mondeo estate.

It was also the first car I've owned that didn't have a low washer fluid warning!

Odd, Ive had a number of Mondeos (2006, 2007, 2010, 2011, 2012) which all had it ...
Seems a step backwards really .....
 
My current Gen 4 2016 Prius has a warning comes up on the info screen, previous models had a dip stick in the washer bottle neck as the actual bottle was not visible.
