2013 Chevrolet Equinox VISIBILITY/WIPER

I was driving my car like usual and I almost reached home and my windshield vipers stopped working. I parked my car and checked it and the wipers are not working.

ONE OF THE WIPER ARMS HAS FAILED ENTIRELY. THE DEALERSHIP WE PURCHASED IT FROM (USED) ADVISED IT WAS REPAIRED, BUT IT HAS FAILED NONETHELESS. OUR 18 YEAR OLD SON DRIVES THIS CAR AND IT IS NOT SAFE. BASED ON OTHER INTERACTIONS WITH THE DEALERSHIP, WE BELIEVE THEY MAY HAVE "FAKED" THE ACTUAL REPAIR...OR THEY REPLACED THE POSSIBLY DEFECTIVE PART WITH AN ACTUAL DEFECTIVE PART. WE WANT IT INSPECTED, AND IF OLD OR DEFECTIVE, HAVE IT REPLACED AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

Was driving thru Atlanta at night in a rainstorm and without any warning my passenger side wiper totally quit. The driver side wiper was all I had. I had to cautiously keep driving in the very center of Atlanta. I do have the complete motor parts as I replaced it myself after buying the part from a local GM dealer. I have had no dealer inspection yet because I just heard about the recall on the 2014 and 2015 wiper recall. this happened in April of 2021.

Hello I had an open recall for the wiper transmission replacement. I took my vehicle to Don Brown Chevy in st.louis missouri. They where suppose to replace the wiper transmission. Mine failed while driving. Since my car had an open recall I should of received a replacement one installed. This dealer told me they did the recall and everything was good to go. Well they lied they did not complete my recall. I had to go buy one from the local parts place and install it my self. the new design comes with a rain deflector baffle. the original one in my car still had the paint lines on the wiper transmission from the factory install. They lied about doing the recall and endangered my life.

WHILE GETTING READY TO LEAVE WORK ONE DAY IT STARTED TO RAIN A BIT, SO I TRIED CUTTING ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND NOTHING HAPPENED, IT WOULDN'T MOVE AT ALL, SO I TRIED PULLING OVER AND RESTARTING THE CAR AND THEY STILL WOULDN'T WORK. I CAN STILL HEAR THE MOTOR BUT STILL NO MOVEMENT, PLEASE HELP NEED FIXED BEFORE WINTER !!

On Feb 14 2021 took car in to a Chevy dealership to have 2 recalls done . Tailpipe emission oxygen sensor, Front wiper transmission corrosion failure . Notice on 8/29/2021 while on a road trip needed to clear bugs off front windshield no windshield fluid was coming out , so I feel the front wiper transmission corrosion failure was not repaired . Will contact dealership to have issue checked out with a different location.

SHOWS NO RECALL FOR MY VIN BUT YET THE PROBLEM WHICH IS RECALLED HAS HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. DRIVERS WIPER DOES NOT WORK. SITTING IN DRIVEWAY WARMING CAR WHILE IT WAS RAINING AND NOW IT DOESNT WORK AT ALL

BEFORE RECALL ON WIPERS FOR CHEVY 2013 EQUINOX. HAD ISSUE WITH WIPES. FRONT WIPERS STOPPED WORKING DURING RAIN STORM WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. TOOK VEHICLE INTO CARMAX DEALERSHIP WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, MECHANICS FIXED ISSUE. ABOUT A MONTH LATER I RECIEVED LETTER ABOUT RECALL. SHORTLY AFTER WIPERS FAILED FOR A SECOND TIME AGAIN DURING RAIN STORM WHILE DRIVING. TOOK VEHICLE TO LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD, THAT NO SOLUTION HAD BEEN APPROVED BY CHEVY AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR REPAIRS. ALSO IF THE REPAIRS THAT THEY SUGGESTED WERE NOT THE SAME AS THE ONE CHEVY APPROVES THEN I WOULD NOT BE REIMBURSED. I DECLINED REPAIRS, AND TRIED CONTACTING CHEVY CUSTOMER SERVICE. AFTER MANY PHONE CALLS, BETWEEN CHEVY, CARMAX, AND LOCAL DEALERSHIP, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. CHEVY HAS SAID THAT I HAVE VOIDED RECALL BY HAVING CARMAX MECHANICS WORK ON IT. CARMAX TELLING ME THAT ITS CHEVY RESPONSIBILITY. THERE IS STILL NO APPROVED FIX FOR THIS RECALL, AND I STILL HAVE TO USE VEHICLE WITHOUT WIPERS IN FEAR THAT ANY REPAIR OR FIX WILL EITHER VOID THE RECALL OR WOULD NOT BE REIMBURSED.
