Description of the problem	Gm has a defective drivers side windshield wiper system that failed/stopped working while i was driving on the highway in the pouring rain. This situation can and will kill somebody. Thankfully i was able to pull over and had tools to remove the drivers side windshield wiper and plastic wiper motor cover to re-attach the windshield wiper linkage. Otherwise i would have had to call roadside asst. Below the plastic windshield wiper cover, there is the windshield wiper motor and linkage. There is a 6 inch arm that comes off the wiper motor with an upside down bowl. The half bowl attaches to a 3 inch arm with a half a ball at the end of it that faces upwards. The half ball then is attached below the bolt/nut that holds your windshield wiper on the car. Gm says it is not covered under warranty. So does chevy dealership. Cup and ball attachment system in the wiper motor linkage with no clip to stop it from popping off. Gm question reference #[xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
