VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER
WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMMITENTLY. MOSTLY RAINING OR WET CONDITIONS. GOING ON TWO YEARS NOW. I SEE THIS RELATES TO RECALL 98V150. HOWEVER, THE GMC DEALER USED MY VIN NUMBER AND DID NOT FIND RECALL APPLICABLE TO THIS. WHY NOT? I KNOW OF MANY OTHERS AND EVEN THE DEALER SAID HE GETS AT LEAST ONE A DAY FOR THIS PROBLEM. HE IS CHARGING $149 TO REPLACE THE WIPER CIRCUIT. OTHERS HAVE GOTTEN THIS COVERED UNDER RECALL. CAN I GET GMC TO COVER THIS?

I DID NOT KNOW THAT THE POWER STEERING HAD BROKE UNTILL I WAS TURNING OFF THE INTER STATE HIW AY . IT HAD NEVER GIVEN INDICATION THAT IT HAD BROKEN NO NOISE OR RATTLE FROM THE POWER STEERING UNIT IT HAD SEPARATED FROM THE SHAFT INTERNALY , THE SHAFT CONTINUED TO OPERATE, BUT THERE WAS NO PRESURE TO TURN THE WHEELS. IT WAS VERY HARD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WITHOUT THE ASSIST . IT WAS LUCKY THAT I DID NOT HAVE TO MAKE A QUICK MANUVER TO MISS SOMETHING BECAUSE IT WAS TO HARD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT .*AK
