VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR
I KNOW THAT THE S10 WAS RECALLED FOR THE WIPERS PROBLEM AND LOOKED IT UP AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE SILVERADO'S WERE NOT RECALLED. THEN I CALLED THE 800 NUMBER FOR CHEVY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL THAT IT WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO RECALL. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT IT IS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AS THE S10'S AND IT HAS THE SAME WIPER MOTOR. SO WHY WILL THEY NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM TOO. *AK

I CONTACTED GM ABOUT THE FAILURE OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND HOW THEY SOMETIMES JUST QUIT WHILE I AM DRIVING AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VIN NUMBER HADN'T BEEN RECALLED YET AND WHEN IT DID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME. WHEN I DIDN'T GET A RESPONCE FROM THEM I WENT TO MY DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEIR WASN'T ANY THING THEY COULD DO UNTIL THEY GOT MY VIN NUMBER IN THAT RECALL BUT I THINK THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE CAUSE WE ALL KNOW HOW IT RAINS IN OKLAHOMA. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMITENTLY. AT ONSET WILL GO THROUGH 3 TO 5 CYCLES THEN STOP. ON OCCASION I WILL HEAR A BUZZING NOISE. DEPENDING ON HOW ROUGH THE ROAD MAY WORK AND STOP AGAIN. I LIVE IN S CAL. AND IT RAINS RATHER HARD SO MUCH SO, THAT ON MANY OCCASION I'VE HAD TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY UNTIL THE RAIN SLACKENS. I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR WEB COMPLAINTS AND I SEE THEY ARE UP TO 181COMPLAINTS. THIS I'M SURE DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE COMPLAINTS MADE DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERS OR THE CUSTOMERS THAT'VE ELECTED TO MAKE THE REPAIRS ON THEIR OWN. AND THEY'VE HAD A RECALL ON THE GM SIDE OF THE HOUSE WHICH HAS THE SAME PARTS AS CHEVROLET. *AK
