Customer brought her Corolla into our service department advising wipers weren't working properly. Turns out a rather large carpet snake had somehow worked his way into the wiper cowling area and got caught up in the wiper mechanism.
Snake handlers were called in to help remove the injured snake. He has been taken to Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary on the Gold Coast and is hopefully recovering from his ordeal.
UPDATE: 30/6/11 - Sadly the snake had to be euthanaised as a result of his severe injuries. X-rays had revealed he had a broken back. :(
