Why did my daughter's Renault Scenic's windscreen wipers stop working in heavy rain?
My daughter was driving on a motorway in her Renault Scenic when there was a cloudburst and her wipers just stopped working until the rain eased off. Fortunately, she managed to pull in onto the hard shoulder but was traumatised by the incident. Is this common with the Scenic and what can she do to ensure that this never happens again?

Can happen with other makes ands models. I guess water got into the wiper motor.
