Hello,
Both wipers were working when it started to rain freezing rain, then the passenger side stopped operating, it would try to go but can not go up. I kept driving with just the drivers side operating and now it goes sporadic and does not always go all the way up or up at all. I have tried to pour warm water on them thinking they were just frozen, but it did not work. any suggestions?
