I was driving home in the rain/sleet when my wipers just stopped working. Was very scary as I was on a highway and couldn't see out of the front windshield. I never had a problem before this and wipers just quit working.

Literally almost died with my son in this vehicle, as we we're driving back home on the interstate traffic was heavy for Sunday evening due to the amount of rain that was falling. In the middle of this drive the wipers stopped working, they stopped in the upward positions. Which added to the difficulty of visibility as I put my hazards and play that we wouldn't get hit or that I wouldn't hit anything. I was finally able to pull over and fiddled with the wipers to try to get them to work-again and didn't happen we had to stay on the side of the road until the rain subsided a bit to make it home it was horrifying. As being in Florida it rains a lot and heavy we still had a long trip ahead of us to get home. I did reach out to several repair shops and they're telling this common with these vehicle surprised it's not a recall. Adding insult to injury the repair is definitely costly as a single parent this is beyond difficult during these covid times with not having work. If GMC is aware of this problem why haven't they done anything about it "?" for every GMC Terrain owner be careful check your wipers especially if you children because this is the kind of scare that you don't want to have. All I can hope for is sharing this experience will help others because it's what is sincerely horrifying.

I was driving on the highway I75 yesterday October 29th 2020 during heavy rain the wipers were on and working, as soon as I turn the wiper speed to a faster rotation all of the sudden the wipers just stopped working and was hard to see anything. The next morning I checked all fuses and motor, when I turn the wiper on the motor still made noise. I took the wiper assembly apart and got into the wiper linkage and saw it had came apart, I put it back on and turn on the wiper and it came right off, looks like the link and bushing is rusted and needs replaced. I did some research and it looks like it's a pretty common with the Terrains and equinox. This is an dangerous issue that GM needs to address and get it fix for its customers.

Own 2014 GMC Terrain with 56K miles on it, have had the car two years and have had multiple issues. First incident, was driving on highway in rain wipers just shift off. Almost wrecked trying pull off side of the road. Cost $300 for new motor. 2nd issue had to have a sensor replaced because car burned excessive oil in between oil changes, with no indication of low oil. Fried the sensor. 3rd issue, a repeat of the 2nd car would not pick up speed on highway, stabiltrak light came on, engine light came on, speedometer stopped immediately, I checked oil. Wasn't bone dry. Drove it straight home and was in even worse condition reversing into driveway. The oil exploded all over driveway, had it towed to private mechanic. Now I have to put a whole new engine in because GM is negligent with issuing recalls. Oil was leaking from rings all the way out to the exhaust. Faulty oil system and no warning fried my engine. Still owe 15,000$ in the car. This shouldn't ever happen on a car with so low miles and proper upkeep. Glad I'm stuck with 15K on a loan and a car that isn't reliable. Very disappointed.

When I left work yesterday evening it was dark and raining outside, and naturally, I turned on my front windshield wipers. About five minutes into my drive home, while on the highway, my front windshield wipers stopped operating. I could not see anything ahead of me, because it was raining pretty hard at that point and it was extremely dark on the highway. The vehicles behind me were approaching pretty fast. I put my hazard lights on, and crossed three lanes to get to the side of the road. I waited, approximately 15 minutes on the side of the road, for the rain to stop, but it never did. I was about 1/2 mile away from my exit, so I inched my way there, while driving on the side of the road. I made it to a nearby gas station and waited an hour for the rain to die down. I drove behind other vehicles, using their rear lights as my visual guide in order to make it home. My front windshield wipers never turned back on. It was a horrible experience. Luckily there were no fatalities as a result of my windshield wipers malfunctioning.

While driving on I-75 S in Kentucky during a torrential downpour my windshield wipers stopped in filed goal position making it impossible for me to see. I had to carefully pull over to the side of the highway. I tried replacing the fuse, to no avail. I attempted to use rainex to improve visibility but that didn't help much. The dealership wants to charge $125 to look at my vehicle. I could've been killed on the highway.this should be a recall due to this recurring issue with this make and model

While driving to niagara with my son on the mass pike, my wipers just stopped working. It was raining heavily for the last 2 hours of the trip and it was harrowing, stressful and unsafe. We could not find an open garage to fix the problem. The guy at rest stop tried to replace the fuse but that didn't work. It needed a new motor and transmission which cost me $562.42, including car loan for $29.95 so I could go to work. I have read similar complaints for the 2014 Terrain.

When you turn on the wipers above the first click they detach from the wiper arm and quit working. Everything has to be torn apart to reassemble. It's happened in motion and stationary. It's happened multiple times. Can't drive it when it rains.

I was driving at approximately 25mph while using the windshield wipers and they stopped when straight up and down (12 O'clock). The wipers are very easy to move by hand.

I was driving on the highway in the rain and wipers stopped working. They were stuck in the upright position. I got off the road and moved them physically down out of my view. They then would not turn on. I can hear the motor turning but the wipers do not move.

While driving home from work on the highway during a thunderstorm, the windshield wipers stopped working which forced me to pull over because of no viability! I had to wiatbfor the rain to stop in order to make it home. Have replaced fuse and they are still not working! was told that the motor may have failed and would cost around 300 to 400 dollars to repair. Have seen multiple reports of others having the same issue. Wipers are still not working as I am unable to afford repair cost.

- New Caney, TX, USA

While driving on the interstate this morning during a storm, my windshield wipers quit working. I couldn't see anything and was worried I was going to cause an accident because of this. I was finally able to make it off to the nearest exit to check my wipers. The wipers wouldn't work but I could hear the motor working. When I finally made it back to my house, I checked on this and found that older Terrains were recalled because of this issue with wiper blades being faulty.

I received a document dated Dec 2019 regarding a condition where a link ball socket in the wiper transmission may separate causing a complete loss of wiper function. It is not being handled as a recall which I think it should be. Only vehicles which experience this failure will be repaired. This appears to be more of a safety issue than an advisory and should be considered a recall or be done for free at the owners request. I contacted patriot GMC in boyertown and asked that the repair be done under the advisory notice as a courtesy but have not heard back.

As many other complaints filed here my wiper transmission/linkage has failed also but just week for the second time after having replaced it just last year with new replacement one. I was driving home from work and it was snowing partial city street and highway driving. Last year when it failed it was raining on my way home on highway. Needless to say I would like an explanation as to why this has failed for a second time and no manufacturing design upgrade has been done by GM to rectify this continual failure.

As several other people with this vehicle have reported recently, wipers stopped working while in a rainstorm. I tried changing the fuse since but no change. I can hear the motor running when switching to the on position but no response at all from either wipe.

While driving in heavy rain on city streets my wipers suddenly stopped working. I was able to stop without having a wreck and was close to a GMC dealership. I drove very slow with great difficulty to the dealer and had to leave the vehicle there. This is a Saturday and will not hear from them until Monday as to the repair.
