problem #3

Tacoma 6-cyl

  • 25,800 miles
While driving, it started to rain. Naturally I flipped the wipers on. The wipers stalled and started then quit, mid-wipe. Wiper motor quit. It acted frozen, it squeaked and stalled half-way through a wipe action. Had to pull off because visibility was poor. Got out, tried to help the wiper arm move. The motor squeaked. The wipers would not operate and would not move from its mid-windshield location. Waited until the rain passed to begin driving again. Because it rains so often here, the wipers are required equipment, for safety and visibility. An inoperable wiper system renders the truck inoperable, in other words useless.

As I was cleaning the windshield I had my wiper blades up. I bumped the blade arm and the wiper fell off as the arm came down hitting the windshield causing a one foot long crack in the windshield. I have read there has been recalling on other Toyota for windshields cracking from the defroster blowing warm air on a cold windshield. Apparently, the glass is too thin. The truck was in my driveway.
