The wiper motor has a stamped steel plate attached to it with a formed tab. Due to the weight of the snow the metal tab will bend. As a result the wipers do not sense the stop point in reverse and then park straight up.

To correct the issue you will need to remove both wiper arms and the plastic cover. The tab is located on the driver's side wiper. The tab should be at 90 degrees and can be bent back into place and form.
