Chevrolet Equinox wiper motor issue resolved due to recall after failure during rain on Chevrolet Equinox

Some Chevrolet Equinox owners report experiencing issues with windshield wiper failure due to corroding ball joints in the wiper modules. This problem can lead to the separation of one or more ball joints from their sockets during operation, resulting in the complete failure of one or both windshield wipers, which is particularly dangerous in rainy conditions when visibility is essential. In response to this safety concern, General Motors has initiated a recall for certain 2014-2015 model year Equinox vehicles, offering free inspections and repairs for affected wiper modules. Owners who encounter wiper failure during inclement weather are advised to verify if their vehicle is included in the recall and to contact a GM dealership for necessary inspections and repairs. Promptly addressing this issue is crucial for maintaining the safety and functionality of the vehicle's windshield wipers.
