When you cycle the wipers and turn off, this tab hits a piece of metal bent up and changes the directionto the transmission and staps in the right position. This happened to me when too much snow was on windshield a couple years ago and just found it.

listen to diecast_man on this.
My car has been doing this for 1 1/2 years. And it doesn't take much force for it to happen. There was no snow, but the wipers were frosted to the glass when mine went. The event was barely noticeable and the wipers did break loose . I always thought it was a short condition -but I am wrong. In a few weeks I'll start digging around the wiper chassis to find this fault. 6 more months and the car is paid off. 2000 Intrigue.
The condition would be called "wipers that won't park".
