Windshield wiper failure by model year
What owners say
Air bag light on dashboard has come on and stayed on. Consumer has had a fuse replaced a couple times in an attempt to fix this defect. *ak the air bag light problem was connected to the rear window wiper, because the fuse burns out whenever the wiper is turned on. The recall servie on this problem did not correct it.
When driving consumer noticed the clock/ radio/ headlights and windshield wipers were flashing off and on without operator controling the components. Also gas gauge and speedometer malfunctioned, gauges were moving up and down. Consumer has contacted the dealer, dealer has linked the problem to the body control computer which need replacing. Please provide any further details.
The rear window wiper failed prior to recall notice 99v‑113. Nlm
It was raining and windshield wiper stopped working, affecting driver's visibility. This defect is recalled on the 91-93 caravans, but not on this 94 with the same problem.
Vehicle experienced failure of the recall component prior to notification, resulted in replacement of air bag fuses and wiper motor unit due to short, requesting reimbursement. (99v‑113)
I ? Failure of a recently routinely serviced transmission. I was told that driving in this condition would cause the system to lock up and create other failures (axle). Am I alone in this problem, also, I had received a recall on the van for airbag problem - it also listed on the form in very small print that the rear wiper may also have to be serviced/replaced at their discretion I believe. After getting service for this the wiper blows fuses as before disabling the wiper and also the airbag system what recourse if any do I have when they say the wiper is doing this because people don't clear off the rear windows properly??? Thanx for any help you can give me.
