 Description of the problemMy husband was driving home on the freeway at approximately 55 mph from downtown houston in pouring rain. At the 610/225 junction the front wipers stopped working. He checked the fuse and then checked the wiper motor, which he could hear working. Upon researching he found that there is a known issue with the plastic bushings breaking on the windshield wiper transmission. Unfortunately you can't replace just the bushings, the whole assembly has to be replaced. The part is $86. 00 + tax if you are able to do it yourself, otherwise it will be over $300. 00 at the dealer. We feel very blessed that it was my husband driving and not our daughter as this would probably be a very different post. I am curious as to how many of the vehicle wrecks in bad weather involving gm vehicles where someone was killed or seriously injured may have been because the wipers suddenly stopped working. Gm us needs to get on the ball and follow canada's lead in issuing a recall before someone gets hurt or worse killed.
