Description of the problem | While driving in the rain the windshield wipers just stop working, the head light indicator comes on and there is no response from windshield wipers, the rain gets harder and turned the wipers back off the headlight indicator goes off, try turning the windshield wipers back on and nothing. So when on an interstate in rain with semi trucks around you or just following another vehicle, if it is racing or pouring or whatever the weather, you need the wipers to work, this is a big problem, i have searched on line issues of this and it is something that has been a complaint from brand new and still on going. Recalls were only posted for 2 models of vehicles but the problem is with the pickups as well. The wipers are a very important part of a safe ride and it is important to have this issue fixed. The price we pay for vehicles they should be safely equipped for this price. |
