This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Twice under warranty windshield wipers failed to come on and the dealer (different from where I bought the car) replaced the wiper motor. The repair lasted approx. 1 year before the next failure. Now that the warranty is over all of a sudden it's the switch and will cost me $275. The same symptoms each time- wipers would not operate until put on full or by pushing the mist control first.
While traveling on the freeway with windshield wipers on the second highest setting, the passenger-side windshield wiper arm broke in half. The wiper assembly slid up the windshield, flew over the top of my car, and landed in the middle of the freeway. Fortunately, the only driver behind me was several hundred yards away.
