Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Windshield wipers quit working .I had to put pressure on harness connector with bunge cord or prop stick behind motor to put pressure on unit in order to work. Then they only operated when they wanted to. Most any time when a driver uses the wipers it is when they are needed, (rain, bad weather & the like), and it's an accident waiting to happen. Doesn't GM realize this complaint could result in accident,( hopeful not a fatality). I had control module replaced on face of wiper motor and wipers now work as intended. Module cost me $29.00 and less than 5 minutes to replace. …”
