Consumer Description
While driving on a major North Carolina highway at the posted speed limit of 65mph during a rain storm the windshield wipers stopped and froze in the middle of the windshield. The wipers would not operate at all and necessitated attempting to move from the middle lane to the berm with no visibility. This was a danger to other vehicles in the right lane and to the vehicle being driven. I pulled off the highway and waited until it stopped raining. Vehicle was then driven to the nearest exit and closest repair shop, which was a tire and repair shop. The manager said the vehicle has had recalls for the wiper motor and said to bring it to an authorized GMC dealer. This has not occurred to date as the weather is not clear. No other warnings, lights, or indicators occurred prior to the wiper motor failure.
