Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“During inclement weather (snow and rain) when windshield wipers were necessary for visibility, the wipers would either move very slowly or intermittently and stop in the middle of the windshield despite the wiper control set to high and not on the intermittent setting. This would occur when the vehicle was at idle and in motion, any speed. This occurred between march 2016 until a new wiper motor assembly was purchased and installed within the first week of july 2016. …”
