Windshield wiper
I was driving when my windshield wiper moved about a 1/2 up and stayed there and wouldn’t move. I didn’t hit the stalk or anything. Then I couldn’t get the wipers to activate at all. After I turned the car off and restarted they worked normal. On my way home it happened again. Same procedure and they are again working fine! Any ideas? Checked codes. No codes present.

check your drain udders for debris. Chevy placed the motor where it can become submerged if these are not cleaned out. You should have 2 or 3 on the drivers side, to the right of the master cylinder and one on the passenger side behind the battery. Both sides will be under the cowling. Its not a hard fix with small hands. If it persists the wiper motor may be going out.

For sure you got water in the motor - been thru this at least 4x - finally removed the udders on the driver side only - no reason for them. Your motor probably will need to be replaced. It’s not very difficult - 1 hr max job taking your time.
