Description of the problem | Vehicle is registered in montana, one of the states listed in recall #12v151000, re: windshield wipers becoming inoperable in cold weather. Check shows my vehicle is not subject to this recall, but my problem matches it exactly. Conditions, -12deg and light snow. Vehicle has been idling about 10 min with defroster on. I brushed off windshield and cleared come ice that had collected on the wiper blades and at the base of the wiper arms. When i got in the vehicle and turned on the wipers, the arms would not move. I purchased the vehicle used 6 months ago, so i don't know if this has happened before. I believe the only prior owner was also in montana. |
