Consumer Description

I WAS HALF WAY TO MY DESTINATION DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AT 75MPH PULLING BOTH MY HORSES AND MY THREE HORSE TRAILER IN A RAIN STORM WHEN THE WIPERS SPORADICALLY STOPPED WORKING. ON THE HIGH SETTING THEY WENT TO LOW, THEN STOPPED, THEN STARTED AGAIN GOING FAST, THEN COMPLETELY QUIT POSING A SERIOUS HAZARD TO MYSELF, MY ANIMALS, AND ALL AROUND ME ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER AND WAIT IT OUT A WHILE UNTIL I COULD ATTEMPT TO COMPLETE MY TRIP. WITH SO MANY COMPLAINTS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. I HAVE REPLACED THE WIPER MOTOR WHICH ONLY MADE THE WIPERS MOVE VERY SLOWLY. THERE IS STILL A PROBLEM, LIKELY QUITE EXPENSIVE, WHICH WILL NEED TO BE FIXED. MY TRUCK IS DRIVEN VERY SPARINGLY AND HAD ONLY 75000 MILES AT THE TIME OF WIPER FAILURE. *KB
