NHTSA Complaint #10354107 — 2000 FORD EXCURSION

WINDSHIELD WIPERS RUNNING IN INTERMITTENT MODE. STARTED TO SMELL AN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL IN THE INTERIOR CABIN. WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED TO MOVE VERY SLOWLY. I TRIED TO TURN WIPERS TO ON-SLOW AND ON-FAST MODE AND THEY WORKED ERRATICALLY. I PULLED OFF ROAD AND STOPPED VEHICLE AND SMOKE WAS POURING OUT OF DRIVERS SIDE ON OUTSIDE OF WINDSHIELD WHERE WIPER MOTOR IS LOCATED. I RAN FOR MY FIRE EXTINGUISHER BUT DID NOT HAVE TO USE IT. WIPERS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING AT THIS TIME. I HAVE NOT REPLACED ANY PARTS AT THIS TIME AND I AM FILLING A COMPLAINT. I SEE THERE IS A NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID# 01V258000 THAT I BELIEVE INVOLVES MY VEHICLE. I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY NOTED MY CONCERNS AND SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AT THIS TIME. *TR
