2014 GMC Terrain visibility/wiper problems

“The contact owns a 2014 GMC Terrain. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH in a snowstorm, the windshield wipers became inoperable. The contact was able to drive to the residence. The contact had received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V165000 (Visibility). The vehicle was taken to the dealer for the recall repair; however, the dealer informed the contact that the recall repair could not be performed due to a Salvage Title. The manufacturer was contacted and advised the contact that the repair could be covered because the Salvage Title was not related to the windshield wipers; however, the manufacturer called the contact and informed the contact that the repair could no longer be covered due to the Salvage Title. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The failure mileage was approximately 149,680.”

“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.”

“The actuator that controls the blend door / recirculation door (moves the air from defrost to floor to vent) does not last more than a year in my vehicle. I see on the GMC Terrain forums that it is a common problem. It is a danger when defrost is needed on the windshield, and it doesn't work.”

“The windshield wipers suddenly stopped working when it was raining really hard last week. This caused me to almost get into a car accident because I could not see the road with all the rain. I had to stop on the side of the road until the rain stopped, which took a while. This occurred on a road where there were not many street lights, which made it even worse to see ahead. I took the vehicle to the nearest GMC dealership for diagnostics and they were not able to provide the service to repair/replace the wipers because of the recall not being complete. I currently can't drive the car when it is raining which is difficult since this is my only mode of transportation for work.”

“The contact owns a 2014 GMC Terrain. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V137000 (Exterior Lighting) and 22V165000 (Visibility). The contact stated that while her daughter was driving in the rain the windshield wipers became inoperable. Additionally, the headlights were dim. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the wiper motor and motor assembly were replaced. The contact called the local dealer but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure however, no further assistance was provided. 73,101. VIN tool confirms parts not available.”

“Headlights- melted plug causing fire damage on both headlights, replaced with new headlights and bulbs as well as a new wire harness plug. Was driving smelt smoke/wires burning. 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.”
