Wiper stopped functioning while driving in light snow and wet roads... couldn't clean windshield to see clearly ahead. Did the basic checks such as fuse etc. - all okay. Wipers could easily move back and forth by hand.

Nothing bad has happened yet. This "recall" has been going on for months. I find it difficult to believe that Chevy cannot come up with a remedy. I would guess one is available but it probably would cost them too much. Concern: If the wipers stop working during a severe storm I'm really in trouble. Why does this take so long"?"

There is a recall on my vehicle for windshield wipers. My windshield wipers became inoperable on 1/7/17 in the middle of a snow storm. My local dealer gordon Chevrolet and Chevrolet customer service are telling me that there is not a current fix available. In the meantime, I do not have windshield wipers. I requested to be provided a loaner vehicle from the dealer until the fix is in place and was denied. I am currently without wipers and have no where to turn.
