This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Windshield wiper motors failed during a rain storm. Vehicle has only 10k miles on it, wiper motors were set to medium, went up half way, motor made a grinding noise, then wipers stopped moving in either direction. I am able to push them down manually, and the motor can raise them to about 25% then it begins to grind and they stop advancing again. This stinks an awful lot like the recall on 2021 F-150s for bad wiper motors. I suspect the recall campaign needs to be MUCH larger and include 2020 F-150s as well. This was incredibly dangerous and could have caused a serious accident. I had no front visibility during the storm.
Wiper motor is non operational. It has been verified by dealer part is non operational. Non operational wipers put myself and others at risk if there would be visual obscurities that would need to be removed during vehicle operation. The only sign was a loud grinding noise for a few wipes prior to operation ceasing.
