NHTSA Complaint #11475773 — 2015 CHEVROLET EQUINOX

On May 6, 2022 I was driving my 9 yr old daughter home from school during a severe rainstorm and my wind shield wipers just stopped working. Absolutely no movement from them. I got out in this storm on the side of the highway to try to fix them and they would not move. I was 30 minutes from my home and my weather app stated the storm would not stop for hours so I had to drive home with no wipers. I am a single mother of 2 kids with absolutely no help and this is my only vehicle. I've been caught in the rain multiple times in this car since May and I've never shaken in fear like I have when I have to figure out how to get this car home in the rain. I have to check the weather multiple times a day if I need to go anywhere to make sure I don't get caught in a storm. I've canceled multiple doctor appointments because it was storming during the time of the appointment. I had to cancel a trip I planned on taking my kids on because I could not afford to rent a car and I am too afraid to drive my car very far from home.It's summer and my kids are out of school and I can't take them anywhere far because I am too afraid to drive this car because it rains a lot here in the summer. There are no warning lights, nothing else happening...it sounds like the motor works but nothing happens when I turn them. Believe me, I try every time I get in. I took the car to a dealership(Moses in Huntington, WV - Trish Marnix the service manager tried to help) to see if they could see if it was a quick fix however it was not.
