My truck has thewindshield wiper problem that a safety recall has been ordered on. Gm claims that my VIN number is too high and my truck is not affected even though it is obvious to anyones eyes it is. The recall number is 98043 or the federal safety agency # 98v150001. I have been noticing my wipers being intermittent and continuously getting worse. Gm refuses to recognize this as a safety issue. I tried contacting anyone and everyone to no avail. I made a case to them to which the customer no service rep told me that gm would look into it if they saw alot of complaints come in. Its obvious that their recall did not cover all the vehicles affected because I have the exact problems that are described in the recall. I am hoping that someone can see this as a safety issue that gm should stand up to and fix. I welcome a response please. Thank you.
