In the past 2 months I am now faced with a second incident where my windshield wipers stopped working completely while driving on a highway in heavy rain. The dealer has explained they put in a fail safe mechanism to back out the nut attached to the wiper arms in order to protect the wiper motor so it does not burn out as it is covered by the warranty. The 1st time it happened they said it was due to the heavy snows. …”
