Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I found out after I had to replace the windshield wiper motor because the wipers would only work intermittently and that there had been a recall. I had purchased a motor and installed it myself to save $100 over the cost of a motor from the dealer, not to mention labor. The dealer would only reimburse me $42, which it said was the cost of the circuit board. At the time I had to replace the motor, the circuit board was not available to me. I only think that I should have been reimbursed for my actual expenses which totaled about $70 for a rebuilt motor. (the dealer wanted $170 for a motor).”
NHTSA complaint #704814, filed 1999-03“Windshield wipers will completely stop working in rainy weather. They will start back after about 30 seconds being off. Consumer sometimes gets out of vehicle and opens the hood to hit the wiper motor, and they will start back working. No warranty. Dealer contacted, and wants the consumer to duplicate the problem before considering repair of vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #823244, filed 1998-05“Driving the truck in rainy weather and turning on the windshield wipers, the wipers will come on, and then they will stop functioning, causing poor driving visibility for the driver. The driver has to get out of the truck, and move the wipers before they will start working again. Took truck to dealer and had repaired. Was told that the wiper motor was causing the wipers to not work.”
NHTSA complaint #820664, filed 1998-01“The mounting bracket of the front power driver's seat has broken and caused the seat to tip into the reclining position. The windshield wiper motor has been replaced twice because the windshield wipers stopped intermittently, and the problem is still occurring.”
NHTSA complaint #819638, filed 1997-12“Windshield wipers: when driving the windshield wipers will automatically shut off without any warning. This is an intermittent problem, cause is unknown.”
