The wipers have stopped working on a least 6 different occasions. I have to pull over immediately due to not being able to see out the windshield. I try adjusting the switch through all the settings. I shut off the engine and restart the truck. I also turned off the rain sense function on the vehicle settings. Nothing I do will get the wipers working again. I have to wait for the rain to slow down to try to get to my destination. While I continue to drive, the wipers will start working again after about 15 or 20 minutes. The first time this occurred, they were only out for around 30 seconds before they started working again. It seems each occurrence is taking longer for the wipers to come back on. I took the vehicle to Armen Chevrolet of Ardmore on 08/05/2024 for service. They were not able to duplicate the problem. I was told to bring the truck back while the wipers are not working. That is a problem since this only happens intermittently. I fear for my safety and others if this happens at high speeds on a highway in heavy rain. I have another appointment on Monday 09/16/2024 to have diagnose the problem again.

While driving on the highway at night during rainy conditions the wipers stopped in the up position, and at the same time, the headlights turned off. After a few seconds they resumed normal operation. My headlights were in the auto position and my wipers were also in the automatic setting. Being as that I was on a highway at night, in the rain, and going approximately 65mph surrounded by traffic, this was an extremely dangerous situation to be in. Without headlights and windshield wipers, my windshield was immediately obstructed and I was unable to see the road without headlights. More so, other traffic might have had trouble seeing my vehicle. This problem has not been replicated by myself or a dealer. It has been random in nature. When the incident happened, there were no warning lights on the gauge cluster or anything else inside the vehicle that seemed to be affected.
