On the evening of 6-28-07 while driving home from work during a thunderstorm the windshield wipers were running. The rain intensified so I switched the wipers to high speed suddenly the left (driver's side wiper stopped working and jammed against the running right wiper. Luckily there were no cars in front of me and I was on a stretch of road where I could slow down and get over to the shoulder. Upon inspection it appeared that the left wiper linkage broke as I was able to move the wiper without resistance so I moved it to the far left position and it was out of way of the right wiper which was still operating. I waited for the storm to subside then drove on with the right wiper working and the hazard flashers on, and was able to limp home without further incident. Had a car been in front of me at the time of failure the outcome would have been much different. I have an appointment with the dealer to look at the car on 7-2-07 and repaired the wipers.

Windshield wiper drive arm from wiper motor armature to driver's wiper broke, causing driver's wiper to fail and simultaneously jam passenger wiper while school bus was stopping in front of vehicle. My 20 month old Dodge Durango was being driven home from school by my daughter. This entire wiper pivot arm assembly is a terrible design and construction. It is failure by design. I have the failed part and assembly and can ship it to you if you to have engineers inspect.
