Hello, I would say that is exactly what has happened. If you can move the wipers with no resistance it's likely one of the bolts has come loose. Both wiper arms are linked to one wiper motor.
I opened my cavalier and it turns out that some piece of plastic called A wiper Linkage Bushing got old and broke off on both sides. They are hard to find but It's probably the only thing to replace. You can make your own out of some screws and washers but the correct piece might be better. I think its made so that If your wipers get stuck they won't break the motor or burn it.
