Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING 70MPH ON HIGHWAY DURING RAIN STORM. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED WORKING. I WAS NEARLY IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO NO VISIBILITY AND MADE IT TO THE BERM OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO SIT THERE FOR OVER AN HOUR UNTIL THE STORM PASSED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP NEXT DAY AND THEY SAID THE WIPER LINKAGE TRANSMISSION FAILED. I DID RESEARCH AND GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE HOWEVER ONLY ISSUED RECALL ON 2013 MODELS IN THE US. GM CANADA HAS ISSUED RECALL ON MODEL YEARS THROUGH 2016. GM IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND ARE PUTTING LIVES AT RISK. IT MAKES NO SENSE WHY THEY ISSUE A RECALL IN ONE COUNTRY AND NOT THE OTHER. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ASAP.
