Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, LIGHT SNOW CAN DISABLE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. THE WIPERS WILL NOT START WORKING AGAIN UNTIL YOU PULL OVER, LIFT THE HOOD TO CLEAR OUT THE WIPER WELL. THE WIPERS ARE NOT FROZEN TO THE WINDSHIELD. THEY CAN BE MANUALLY MOVED BACK AND FORTH. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT. BELOW IS A LINK TO A FORUM DESCRIBING THE DEFECT.
