1993 Chevrolet C1500 Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“Windshield wipers only work occasionally. When they don't work I have to release the hood, open the hood, and tap on the windshield wiper motor. Once I have done this they start working, most of the time, but there have been times when they haven't. I do believe this problem has occured in the manufacturing process. And I say this because of a recent recall on the winshield wiper motors, on 1996 Chevrolet extended cab pick-ups ( like mine). Since, Chevrolet was able to do a recall on newer model pick-up trucks, then Chevrolet should also do so on their older models pick-up trucks. …”

“Dt: windshield wipers quit working every time there was a hard rain. Owner did received a recall letter. However, consumer's vehicle was not covered under recall due to VIN. Consumer did not find this out until he had all ready taken vehicle to dealership for repairs. Dealership called back, and told the owner that the owner's vehicle was not covered under recall, and since owner's vehicle was not included in the recall dealership will not fix the problem. After the owner's vehicle was returned there was no wiper function at all. The wipers will not even come on. …”

“Windshield wiper failure. Even after having the problem fixed. This problem keeps occurring over and over. When are they going to issue a recall? I guess when someone dies in an accident and they get sued over it . This year model truck also has problems with the transmission slipping . I have had to have the transmission replaced once in this truck and the problem just keeps recurring.(why?)”

“When the wiper switch was turned on it sounded like the wiper motor was running but the wipers were not moving. The consumer had to play with the switch to get the wipers to work. When the vehicle was first purchased, the wipers would come on by themselves whenever they wanted. After repair, the wipers were turned on and a noise was present, then they stopped working.”

“Driver's seatback bolt broke unexpectedly which could havecaused sudden loss of vehicle control. Occurred twice. First time dealer fixed the problem, second time dealer wanted to charge the consumer. Also problem with windshield wipers malfunctioning due to the circuit board. But 1993 C1500 was not included in the recall due to VIN although it had the same problem.”
