Consumer Description

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON I-95 IN NC DOING ABOUT 65 MPH IN A VERY HEAVY RAIN STORM AT NIGHT. THE NUT THAT HOLDS THE WIPER ARM ASSEMBLY TO THE WIPER MOTOR CAME OFF AND THE WIPER ARM ASSEMBLY SEPERATED FROM THE WIPER MOTOR CAUSING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO STOPPED WORKING. VISIBILITY WHEN TO ZERO. LUCKILY THERE WAS AN EXIT TO GET OFF I-95. ONCE I TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM I RE-ATTACHED THE WIPER ARM ASSEMBLY TO THE WIPER MOTOR AND I THEN REPLACED THE NUT WITH A REPLACEMENT NUT. THE AVERAGE PERSON DOES NOT HAVE AN ASSORTMENT REPLACEMENTS NUT AND WOULD HAVE BEEN STUCK IF NOT IN A ACCIDENT.
