Was driving on a busy highway, while it was raining and my windshield wiper on the passenger side jerked and stopped working.
I was driving to my family's home on christmas, when my car suddenly began to smell like burnt rubber inside of the car. it was raining on that day. suddenly the cars ac, or h vac did not work anymore. upon googling things of what it could be, i found out that the resistor and blower motor had been burnt do to be allowing water to enter the blower motor panel from the outside of the car. upon looking at my blower motor and resistor i found evident burn marks on them. gm should investigate how rainwater can enter the cars blower motor causing a burning smell in a inhalation of fumes of burning plastic. not to mention my ability not to see out of the window due to the defrost not working. this is a safety concern!!
