When I got my 2020 Tahoe, everything worked. Somewhere in the last 3+ years, the rear window washer quit working. Front windshield washer still works, rear wiper still works, rear washer pump runs when turned on, no washer fluid comes out. Ideas?

try checking for a broken line/leak, find a dry spot of cement and run the rear wiper washer for a bit then get out and look under the vehicle for a wet spot, if the line is broken then it should be above the wet spot on the ground.
if you can't find anything wet at all even under the truck or in/around the rear hatch then it's possible the motor is cracked and is just sucking air, normally when they crack though they leak right at the washer tank

if the line is cracked you can patch it with some rubber hose and clamps, it's not high pressure and certainly not worth the cost the dealer would charge to replace the entire line

I've never noticed anything on the ground, but I'll check it out.

Does the washer line run on the bottom of the vehicle?
