Wipers on the RAP circuit is common with all GM vehicles. In all my years, I have never heard anyone complain about this feature...until today.

I'm not sure how GM considers it a good design especially if damage could occur when the vehicle is restarted. Maybe the wipers should electrically default to a “full off” state until the wiper switch is moved after re-start.
Any mechanical device that can automatically move after the operator believes power is off is not a good design. I started the thread for general information purposes. I’m not expecting to get a GM recall notice to have a sticker installed on the wipers stating “may move automatically when power is assumed off”

If the wiper is switched to "on" it would be a stupid design for it to be "off" if the switch was "on" regardless. To suggest that the wiper should stay off after ignition is cut and stay off until the wiper switch is moved again, is.... well... dumb.
