2001 Chrysler Town and country limited, back windshield wiper screws came apart during a rainstorm and broke the windshield. It has to be replaced. I have had this vehicle since 2003 and have spent thousands of dollars on major parts. I cannot afford a car payment, but I am worried what will go next. Maybe something that would cause catastrophic injury. Daimler Chrysler needs to reimburse some or all of these expenses.
