On numerous occasions, windshield wipers stop moving even though wipers are engaged to on, causing poor visibility for driving.

the intermittent windshield wiper does not function. it has been inspected and no root cause has been found. the dealer is aware and has changed the sensor without success, this has been ongoing for 5 months. multiple trips to the dealer without resolution. no warning lamps or messages.

The vehicle started making noises and the instrument panel and screen went out. The vehicle was drivable, but the entire instrument panel was out. Radio stopped working, my screen went dark and the backup camera didn't work. The first time this happened the vehicle was stationary and the second it occurred while backing out a parking spot.

I was heading to work and needed to use my windshield wipers when they simply would not turn on - no sound from the motor or anything. For many days this has not worked, now going over a week. No indicator lights that anything could be wrong either. I need my wipers! The nearest dealership couldn't even get me in for a week (i go tomorrow). If you search this issue it appears to be a recurring theme with buick and gmc vehicles - essentially the wiper motor just decides to die out of no where. I bought the car brand new..

The lower portion of the windshield fogs on the center and passenger side at the start of the engine then becomes a full windshield fog when I turn on the defog and fan _ completely obstructing vision. This has happened when the car is stationary or being drivn. Currently, it is at the dealership for the 2nd time requesting repairs. The event is recurring.

When you would start the car the wipers would start by themselves...Now the wipers stopped working completely..I dont know if there's warranty on the car or not

During first snow of the season here in pa, had a wet/heavy snow. Snow was removed from windshield, but not the gully below wipers. No biggie, this is how we've done it on every car since I was a kid, cleaning out the gully when wipers cannot go down all the way. As I was driving and snow was coming down, some from above the windshield came down and added to what was in the gully. The wipers stopped working! Imagine my surprise, the wipers came to a stop and were not moving. I could not see if blizzard like...

DON'T EXCEL UNSAFE BELTS NEED TO BE INSPECTED.

5 Month after I had bought the car I was going 35 mph down a regular street when the car stop then when I want to move again the accelerator but then the car came to a complete stop where the engine had smoke coming out of it. The dealer said that there was a big hole in the engine. After they repair it no more than two weeks later I was going down a road where the car just turned off and it did not even let me move out of the road way. And now 3 weeks ago I was going down a street going 45 mph when the person in...

The wiper blades failed to work during a wet heavy snow fall. The wipers removed the snow very well on the up stroke but on the down stroke the wipers packed the snow on the cowling until it got to a point that the wipers could not complete the cycle and they would stop working. I have a video using a bath towel to simulate snow and how to stopped the blades from working. The video is too large to send it in the space provided but I am sure it will send via e mail. I also have notes written in real time on all conversations with buick/gm and two dealerships. I also have a letter and a condemning e mail from buick/gm and these put me over the allotted characters. *Js

On several occasions while driving this vehicle in the rain, I have nearly wrecked or caused an accident to others due to poor visibility of the wipers not functioning properly.
