Windshield wiper failure by model year
What owners say
While driving front windshield wipers failed intermittently. Recall 03v159000 was issued on this problem. However, dealership would not repair because this vehicle was not included in the recall due to VIN. *ak
Windshield wiper motor failure.
The windshield wipers failed intermittently which caused poor visibility during inclement weather.
Windshield wipers failed to wipe after brief rainstorm . Once the truck dried, the wipers would work. The left and right rear turn signal electrical assemblies failed within 2 weeks of each other and further diagnosis revealed an open circuit in each assembly which caused the turn signal to fail to flash. Bulb tested good. The personal at the auto parts store stated they had a lot of these assemblies being requested for replacement. I have never had a wreck with my vehicle. I believe this is a manufacturing defect by gm supplier because the brake light portion would continue to work. *jb *nlm **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis*764581
Windshield wipers work intermittently. At times, only one speed of operation is available. One dealer told me that gm had knowledge of this defect(bad solder joints on circuit board?) but would not issue/initiate a recall or assist owners financially in repair of the problem.
