Driver's side windshield wiper quits moving and the passenger side wiper keeps going, thus, running into and bending the driver's side wiper. This has happened three times despite taking it to a dealer for repair. Tightening the nut that holds the wiper arm on appears to be an effective temporary fix.

I have had multiple failures of the windows being stuck down(both at diff. Times) this is not an issolated incident. It is a very common problem with this car between 1997 and 1999. Although it may not seem to be directly a hazardous problem, it can be if in an accident(roll over)as an arm, or entire body may be thrown from the car if the windows were down. As small of a fraction of a possibility that that may be, it is still a possible problem that could have been avoided if the driver had the option to roll the windows up. This is a known problem by pontiac and will not be addressed. Even the replacement motors fail, they refuse to replace mailfunctioning motors unless they fail while at the service shop.(it is an intermitent problem). Please help to get this resolved! Thank you very much.
Interior sunroof molding is wraped. Yh
