Consumer Description
ON 12/31/2015 WHILE TRAVELING IN THE FAST LANE ON A BUSY CROWDED HIGHWAY IN THE POURING RAIN WITH MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON HIGH, ALL OF A SUDDEN POOF THEY STOPPED WORKING. THEY WOULD NOT COME BACK ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER (MIZZELL FORD-WAYNESBORO, GA) ON 1/04/2016 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. ONE OF THE WIRES HAD COME LOOSE OR DISCONNECTED FROM THE HARNESS THAT CONTROLS THE WIPERS. THEY REPAIRED THE WIRE AND RELOCATED THE HARNESS. MY CONCERN IS THIS BEING AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO REALIZE IMMEDIATELY WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND WAS IN A SPOT WHERE I COULD ROLL DOWN THE DRIVER WINDOW WHILE BEING SOAKED TO PULL SAFELY OFF THE HIGHWAY. SOME OTHERS THAT THIS HAS OR WILL HAPPEN TO MAY NOT BE AS FORTUNATE RESULTING IN A DEADLY ACCIDENT. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR REVIEWING MY CONCERNS. *TR
