problem #1

Monte Carlo LS 3.4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 91,500 miles

Windshield wipers have a habit of engaging on their own and will not disengage. Wipers also will get stuck and will not retract. Only two settings will function on the control arm mechanism of the wiper blades. The high beams will not remain illuminated when you pull the control arm back. Had to hold the control arm to the rear position to keep the high beams on. The A/C/Heater has only two functioning settings much like the wiper blade controls. Took it back to the dealer for repair and which resulted in the replacement of the control arm assembly, wiper motor/ and several new resistors linked to the A/C Heater. Cost approx $1000.00 and became issue at approx. 91000 miles.
