Description of the problem	My vehicle is a 2004 audi a4 cabriolet with a 1. 8t engine. Windshield wipers stop working. While driving on the pa turnpike in the rain my windshield wipers stopped in the middle of the windshield and would not move. I was lucky it wasn't at night because i was unable to see the lanes in the road or other cars in front of me. I pulled over and waited for the rain to stop. When i contacted the audi dealership to ask what they thought it could be i was told that it was most likely caused by the windshield wiper transmission becoming corroded with rust and being unable to move. The service technician said this was a common problem with these cars and they had just finished repairing one this week (southhills audi, pittsburgh pa) i made an appointment at the dealership to have my vehicle inspected and 2 weeks later after the inspection was told that the wipers have definitely stopped working because of the amount of rust on the windshield wiper transmission. I was quoted 600 dollars to fix and left to drive home since they didn't have the parts. *kb
