Well a friend and I decided to go on a day trip to Atlantic City to play some poker yesterday. On our way home, it was raining pretty hard and I had the wipers going at full speed. All was well, when all of a sudden we see that the two wipers for some odd reason got tangled in the middle of the windshield. Then as the motor tried to separate the two wipers, it practically exploded!! I mean my driver side wiper blade and mount riped right off the wiper arm and flew off my car. The passenger side wiper was just stuck upright.
We pull over to assess the damage and find out that we have no driver side wiper anymore and the passenger side wiper motor is toast. I was hoping to find some "Rainex" at the gas station but they didn't have any.
We ended up driving home (~100 miles) without any wipers...
I'm willing to bet no one here has experienced this before... just thought I'd share this "interesting" experience
Going to the dealer to find out what this will set me back. Luckily, I made out like a bandit at poker!!
