Consumer Description
WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT STARTED TO RAIN. TURNED WIPERS ON ONLY TO HAVE THEM STUTTER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. THEY THEN STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF MY WINDOW, BLOCKING MY VISION. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND PUSH THEM DOWN BY HAND. I HAD TO FINISH MY 25 MILE DRIVE AT ABOUT 30 MILES AN HOUR PERIODICALLY GETTING MY WIPERS TO WORK. NEXT DAY I CHECKED ALL THE FUSES AND WIRING AND THEN READ ONLINE THE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUES WITH MY CAR MODEL AS WELL AS OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES OVER THE LAST 5 OR SO YEARS. FROM DESCRIPTIONS MADE AND THE NUMBER OF CASES REPORTED I ASSUMED THERE WAS A RECALL I MISSED,BUT THERE IS NOT, WHICH IS SHOCKING.
