Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING IN A LIGHT SNOW STORM THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I TRIED TO PUSH DOWN ON THE STALK TO GET THEM TO WORK ONCE AND THEN TRIED TO PUSH IT UP TO GET TO A SET SPEED AND NOTHING WORKED. ABOUT 3-5 MINUTES LATER THEY CAME ON, WIPED 3 TIMES AND THEN STOPPED AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON MY 30 MINUTE DRIVE. THIS INTERMITTENT ISSUE COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF THE STORM WAS WORSE. I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH.
