“I own a 1993 Chevrolet k series pick up and am experiencing windshield wiper motor failure. The wipers will intermittently stop working usually in bad weather(heavy rain and snow). I understand there is a GM recall 03023 for vehicles of 1994 -1998. After reading this it is exactly what happens to my vehicle. Why are 1993's not included in this?”
NHTSA complaint #10021037, filed 2003-06, 58,000 miles“My windshield wipers have not worked well for over a year. The motor and switch is sound but the circuit board does not send the signal to activate the wipers either at normal speed, high speed, or intermittent. It also will not activate the fluid washer though its motor is sound. Please add my year to the recall investigation.”
NHTSA complaint #10016222, filed 2003-04“I havve a '94 chevy z71 4x4 silveraldo pick up, the windsheild wipers work when they want to! Sometimes I can get them to come on. Then sometimes they come on when they want to. Alot of times they just stop in the middle of the windsheild. It was manufactured in 08/93. I called the dealer and they told me my VIN number was not part of the recall. So I went ahead and paid $58.00+ for a new circut board for the wiper motor. It seemed to have fixed the problem. We will see when I really need them the most. I feel my issue should be covered under the GM recall no. 03023. …”
NHTSA complaint #10049669, filed 2003-12“Windshield wipers fail after being in use. Have had to stop & get out to tap wiper motor to get wipers to work again. Dealer cannot find problem. Dealer stated the problem was with the wiper motor circuit board, just like the ones on recall that are 1994-1996 models.”
