Dealership refused to send a mechanic to repair 3 recall notices, including recall 99v113000/ air bag failure; recall 97v148000/ seat belt failure, and 96v099ooo/ ABS brake failure. Authorized another mechanic to perform work to repair recall, or provide consumer with necessary parts to repair the defects. Consumer was informed that dealership was under no obligation to perform these functions. *ak the consumer had asked the manufacturer for assistance in repairing the steering wheel, the windshield wiper pivot and lift gate supprt bolts, because the parts were defective, but the manufacturer refused to help.
Vehicle has experienced the same wiper failure on 2 occasions, linkage came off stud for motor, a nut came off, and left pivot came off on linkage, dealer replaced linkage and pivots, consumer is requesting reimbursement for the second failure since it happened only 110 miles after dealer repaired wipers from first failure.
While traveling and without any indication windshield arm became undone, and windshield wipers stopped running.
When using windshield wipers without any indication windshield wiper arm broke off, causing windshield wipers not to work. Please provide further information.
Vehicle experienced failure of the recall component (99v‑189) windshield wipers prior to recall notification, failure of the wipers caused loss of visibility resulting in vehicle collision.
Windshield wipers intermittently stopped working during operation or did not operate at all. Dealer/manufacturer notified, and informed consumer that vehicle was not covered under recall due to VIN, and any repairs would be done at consumer's cost.
Consumer requested reimbursement for left windshield wiper pivot and motor which failed prior to recall notice 99v‑189, manufacturer only paid for the the new pivot and not the motor. Nlm
Rear windshield wipers are not operable. Also, sliding doors are off the track when closing.
Windshield wiper pivot drive arm is not properly connected to pivot shaft, causing it to fall. This vehicle VIN# is not included under recall 99v189000 although it has the same defect.
Whenever the windshield wipers are in use, they fail to work properly, causing driver to have poor visibility. This is an intermittent problem. Will be taking vehicle to dealer to check.
The rear windshield wipers will come on for a few minutes and then blow a fuse. For last 2 years rear wipers have not worked at all. The fuse has been replaced 4 times. Problem still exists even with new fuses.
