The chrome trim reflects the sunlight directly into the drivers eyes anytime the sun is overhead. The sun visors are no help. This can cause temporary blindness. Suggest Chevrolet replace the chrome with a subdued color.

OEM windshield wipers are failing after only 7000 miles of light use. Wipers smear the water across windshield making visibility extremely poor. There are zero compatible aftermarket wipers that fit the wiper arm. I have visited 3 auto parts stores and none fit. OEM replacements from dealerships are on long back order. I either have to try to use wipers that may fly off during use because the proprietary wiper arm design isn’t compatible with any aftermarket wipers or wait months for another set of poor quality OEM wipers.

It utilizes a unique and propertiary wiper arm that accepts no brand of commercially available wiper blades and the OEM Wiper Blades have been "Sold Out" as long as the vehicle has been available. I've been reduced to using a wiper blade sharpener and universal wiper blade refills just to maintain basic visibility in rainy conditions.
