Wiper blades remain in an upward position while driving; this occurrence causes visibility issues during harsh weather conditions, which may result in an accident. This issue happens very frequently, and I have to step out of the vehicle to manually push the blades down with my hands.
Tl* the contact owns a 2001 chevrolet impala. The contact stated that the multi-function switch for the power windows and door locks that was on the front driver's side door failed to function. The contact stated that the windows would not close nor would the doors lock. The contact took the vehicle to a mechanic, who advised that the power switch exhibited a short circuit. The contact was only able to close the window when he secured a piece of metal inside the door. The failure mileage was 126,000. The current mileage was 127,000.
For the third time a power window "regulator cable" has broken in my car, twice in the driver door (9/29/04 and 5/15/11) and once in the passenger door (09/15/09), each time while driving the vehicle on a street or highway. Nothing noticeable before windows dropped. Had to drive it to a dealer (once for several hundred miles). Cost of repairs were as high as $433. I have owned this car since 11/2001.
After a ice storm in 2008 I attempted to use my windshield wipers and they proceeded to get stuck in the up position. This past week after another ice storm my wipers were stuck in the up position once again. I know for a fact that cleared all of the ice off of the windshield this time. After my dad fixed it once again, every time I turn them on in the intermittent position when I turn them off they stop in the up position.
After a heavy snow, the windshield wipers on my 2001 chevy impala return to the upright position when off. The wipers will not stop in the down position. After reading a number of other similar complaints on the internet, this is not an isolated defect.
