 Description of the problemWindshield wipers stopped working while driving on the highway during wind and rain storm. The mechanism that moves the wiper arms popped off the ball joint/socket on the wiper transmission. It was repaired, but now i have lost confidence in driving the car in the rain. Luckily i was able to pull right onto the shoulder, but if i was on a road without a shoulder or in a middle lane in traffic, it could easily have resulted in a collision.
