Consumer Description

Issue started 31-Dec-21 left windshield wiper stopped working while driving. Took suv in for repair and was told they were unable to repair as the entire blade and motor would have to be replaced I was referred to the dealership; dealership would have to order the part and not open on weekends. A week later the wiper started working. January 16, 2022, Ive tried to not use the wipers but I got caught in a storm 1.5hrs away from home. I had no choice I put my wipers on the lowest setting with the delay and put on my flashers and just drove in the slow lane. The wipers stopped 30min into my drive and eventually popped off completely it is now resting on my side mirror. I eventually had to pull over and have the vehicle towed. It was just no way to drive in that condition.
