Challenger wipers

We picked up our new 2016 Challenger on Thursday, and started our trip from Alvarado TX to Colorado Springs CO on Friday. While we did have some minor glitches, the worst of them happened during a downpour just South of Amarillo. We were cruising approximately 65 mph, wipers clearing the rain off the windshield, when the passenger-side wiper just disappeared, and the driver's side wiper was stuck on the left side of the windshield. I was pretty much driving blind until I could pull of the road. I checked the front and found the right side wiper was stuck just below the horizon of the windshield. I gave it a slight tug, and both wipers went to the rest position. The rain stopped, but another 5 miles, the rain picked up, wipers went on, and once again became stuck. I pulled over, but before I could tug on the wipers, they went back to the rest position.

My gut reaction is they can't handle operation at highway speeds, but I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem.
