 Description of the problemIssue # 1-the wiper blades stopped working during a rain storm and were stuck midway on the windshield right in my site line while on o long 9 hour trip. I checked the engine compartment area after stopping the vehicle in a safe area. The turned on the wiper control inside the car and could hear the motor but no viper movement occurred. The control unit for the wipers seemed to be inaccessible as there is a large sealed housing over the area covering the wiper motor so i was unable to access or try to repair myself. I waited out the storm and researched to find that the 2013 model terrain had a recall for this exact issue in the united states and that my model year car of 2015 has had the same recall in canada only even though there are several hundred reported cases in the us per consumer reports. My hope is a recall for full repair of the issue will occur immediately in the us as this is a major safety issue that could result in serious injury or even death should this defect not be recalled for repair. Issue #2- the front brakes on my 2015 terrain will lie have to replaced for the 3rd time in a 4 month period. The breaks shake and shimmy the front end of the vehicle when they are applied causing ineffective breaking. Both the break pads and rotors were replaced twice and the left from wheel bearing has also been replaced with the 2nd wheel bearing needing replacement in the very near future. Theses repairs alone have cost me $1300. The auto shop did cover the 2nd brake and rotor repair and will find out shortly if they will cover the 3rd repair. This is another crucial safety issue for this car that is a vital part of my daily commute to and from work. My hope is you will take both these safety issue serious and issue recalls.
