Silverado 3500 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 83,000 miles
Failure of windshield wipers intermittantly usually when it's raining very hard; resulting in total loss of visibility and near collision on several occasions. GM knows they have a problem with circuit boards. This is surely a safety item.

Silverado 3500 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 40,000 miles
Windsheild wiper variable speed control does not work properly. Wipers will not turn off once turned on, thus ruining the wipers in light drizzle/foggy conditions. Intermittant settings do not work at all, wipers only work in normal and high mode.
