problem #1

Dec 282010

MAZDA3 4-cyl

  • 52,000 miles
When it gets cold outside the windshield wipers will stop randomly in the middle of the windshield. I was told from the dealer the wiper motor needed replaced. I replaced the motor and the problem was corrected temporarily, the problem is now occurring again after only 4 months after being replaced. From reading elsewhere this seems to be a problem with all Mazda 3's. I find it dangerous to drive with it like this as it impairs your vision greatly.
