windshield washer rant

So here I am enjoying my 02 Aero that I have had for three weeks. Now let me note that the temperature on my SID says -5 deg F, but on my way to work, my wiper jets have frozen and my windshield is smeared with salt.
So I stop and check the washer fluid, which has ice floating it. So I spent the $3.50 (!) for a gallon of fluid at the Gas station, topped it off with fresh fluid, but the washer motor still strains against an ice clog somewhere.
So why does SAAB hide the washer hose under the hood insulation so I cant pull it off and clear the clog! Grrrr.... Or should I be mad at the SAAB dealer who put cheap fluid in , which caused the freeze.
Please no comments like "It's 75 deg outside here in California!"
Gotta love New England Weather.
