What owners wrote

“I was driving my suv while it was raining heavily and my driver side wipers just stop working out of no where the passenger side still operates. I have not been to see if a dealer can fix it because I was unaware it was under recall so now I’m trying to find someone to fix it while under the recall.”

Wipers- stop preforming during rain storm Southeastern NC on hwy 701 south on 3-24-22. And still does not work. Maybe be associated with older model terrain recall. Same happen to this model.”

“Windshield wipers stopped working during heavy rainfall. No warning signs, were working fine, and then just stopped. Fortunately I was traveling at a manageable rate of speed given the weather conditions & lack of daylight. Appears this is a known issue for multiple GMC models.”
