1. Windshield wipers suddenly stopped working at highway speed during heavy rain and traffic putting me in a dangerous situation (problem was not caused by a fuse). 2. Windshield seems to continously degrade (Mini-craters like it would desintegrate itself) . . . Not caused by stone or other road related objects. Dealer claims that stones are causing it, which is not true, they are too many of them and too small.
