Windshield wiper failure by model year
What owners say
My car has the same sterring column as in the colbolt I once owned. They recalled many makes of the hhr for new columns. But not the 2007 or 2008. I have replaced the wiper motor once before and aftrer 3 years have to replace again. Any time the temperture gets above 70 degree, the power sterring goes out. Also when the ignition switch was recalled and exchanged, the dealership refused to reset the keyless entry key rings, so cannt use my auto starter, unlock or oped my doors, especially the hatch back. There is no way to open that door, no handle, no inner button, no pull to open it.
Power sterring is going out just like it did in my colbolt. Both are 2007. Wiper power drive went out replaced that on our own. When did the ignition switch, the dealership refused to reset the remote controls, said recall was for switch only.
