- Edmond, OK, USA

While traveling in a severe rainstorm the windshield wipers stopped working intermittent and subsequently they stopped working completely. The contact wiggled the wires where the wires plug into the wiper motor. The windshield wipers began to work but later on they quit again. The contact found a plastic tie to place on the wiring harness to hold tight against the motor which allowed the windshield wipers to work. This corrected the problem at this time. The consumer received a recall letter on a separate vehicle, but not on the other vehicle which has this problem. The vehicle was excluded due to the VIN and the model, but this vehicle was experiencing the same symptoms as indicated in the recall. The recall involved the windshield wiper motor. No further corrections or repairs at this time.

Consumer owens a 1999, Chevrolet Suburban. The windshield wiper motor module needed replacement. Windshield wipers will work off and on while driving. When turning them in the on position while going 60 mph the windshield wipers quit on 7-10-2005. The dealership replaced the windshield wiper pulse module at consumer's expense because it was bad. Consumer knew that there was a recall on all models from the mid 1990S through 1997. There were no other known problems with the vehicle at this time. As of now the consumer has not contacted the manufacturer. The dealership that worked on the vehicle was not the same as the one where vehicle was purchased.

1999 Chevrolet Suburban, the problem is with the windshield wiper module. While driving in a rain storm the windshield wipers stopped working. Pulled over, played around with the switch, and the windshield wipers operated. The car was in the repair shop for general service work and when the windshield wipers didn't work. Consumer told the mechanic, and he opened the hood, and hit the module and windshield wipers started to work. Also mechanic told consumer that there was manufacturer's recall 98043 on this vehicle.

Driver reported intermittent loss of windshield wipers, primarily during summer months while trying to clean windshield. Oct 2004, first big rain of the season and wipers are intermittent again. Loss of wipers while heavy downpour on freeway lead to near serious accident.0/19/04 - spoke with Chevrolet customer assistance. They report no recall for this year (1999, sold in 6/1998) and not service bulletin. A look on the internet found many complaints for the same year. Arranging to have service done; will keep old defective part (motor?). I doubt this is an isolated situation given the occurance of failures acknowledge via the existing recalls, and the qty of complaints received.

Problem with windshield wipers. I have had a continual problem with the wipers and have read in several places that there had been a recall on Chevrolet Suburban prior to model years 1999. This is an intermitent problem sometimes they work, sometimes they won't go off at all (they keep running) sometimes when I try to use the wiper washer they continue to go and usually stop in the middle of the windshield.

- Meridian, ID, USA

Windshield wiper blades would periodically quit during a light rain. Would usually start back after turning wipers off and on again. Last time during a driving rain storm on I-10 with 18 wheeler close behind, wiper system completely stopped. A very helpless feeling and dangerous situation. Wiper module was replaced the next week. This should be a recall. Talked to dealer and they were aware of several cars with similar situation.

- Fruitland, ID, USA

Windshield wiper faulty and the brake booster system failed. The wipers will work but than all the sudden stop. The brakes completely went out and the vehicle had very little brake capablility to it. I talked to GM manager jack cunningham on 082903 and he said that a recall has been issued for faulty wipers on years 1994-1997. He did not address the brake problem. Jack said that under the special policy that if my vehicle had the same problem as the recall, GM would honor the recall. I called ed bozarth service and chris needed to verify from jack that this repair would be covered. Chris as well as myself has not yet received a call back from jack at 866 942 4368 X 48470. I called the GM customer service 800# and they said this year is not covered under the recall. I explained to them that I talked to jack and what he said. They commented that they did not want to go over his head and transfered me back to his audix.this needs to be recalled for the faulty wipers and the brake system needs to be investiagated, because these are safety issues and need to be corrected. Thank you

Repeated windshield wiper motor failure on 1999 Chevrolet Suburban. I could rap on wiper motor box and get it to resume several times, but it would fail again in 20 to 30 minutes. Eventually it failed completely late on a rainy night. I drove 30 miles with no wipers in the rain rather than be stranded with wife and two small children in rural Virginia where we have recently had news of attacks and rapes of motorists who had stopped to check their maps.
