“While driving on the highway at night during rainy conditions the wipers stopped in the up position, and at the same time, the headlights turned off. After a few seconds they resumed normal operation. My headlights were in the auto position and my wipers were also in the automatic setting.

Without headlights and windshield wipers, my windshield was immediately obstructed and I was unable to see the road without headlights. …”
