| Wiper problems |
The drivers window has vertical scratches on the outside of the glass. My car is one week past the 36 month warranty and ed shults chevy won't fix it under warranty.
Front wipers can freeze and to bottom of windshield and become immobilized while driving, impairing visibility. This has happened several times this winter, our first with this car, while driving at various speeds when outdoor temp was about 25 deg f, even though car interior temps were comfortable. Defrost heat duct on dashboard hits glass several inches above wipers and does not adequately heat the lowermost windshield where wipers rest at bottom of swipe. Seems like a couple of inches of laminated heating elements similar to the rear window should be required, with a button to control it, and there should be a heated drain hole to remove the water.
