1997 GMC Yukon Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“Broken wiper motor, will not be covered by Gmc or dealer due to its a 1997 and has 110k miles. It happend during a rain storm and I was stranded by the side of the road for an hour. Now I cant drive in the rain, and they want 200 bucks to fix it. Why is it not covered under the recall? I called Gmc and have record number 1-239-630035.”

“Windshield wipers fail. Same part Gmc uses in 1997 c/k series and 1997 surburbans have been recalled under GM recall number 03023. 1997 yukons should be included in this recall. The part is the same.”

“While driving 65 MPH, in inclement weather the windshield wipers failed. This caused poor visibility to the driver. The consumer was able to maintain control of the vehicle and drove it to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic informed the driver that the windshield wiper circuit needed to be replaced. Please provide further details. Consumer stated that the problem was consistant with recall. Number campaign id number : 03v159000 although the consumer missed this recall by a year the problem is still the same. Abs brakes at all speeds feel spongy and often goes clear to the floor.”

“Brakes failed at low speed and hit the car in front of me at stop light. Pushed brakes to the floor and seemed to pick up speed. Air bag did not deploy. Totaled the other car. Went right up on top of his back end. It cost me 200.00 to fix my Yukon. Had already replace ABS system about 8 years ago.the back windsheild shattered one day when I got into the drivers seat.the windsheild wipers had serious problem.replaced the computer part twice.”

“My windshield wipers work occasionally or fail completely. I am afraid of some day I will be caught in the rain, with them not working. I called my local dealer, and explained my problem. They said I would have to fix them myself at a cost of $120, because my Yukon is not part of the recall.”
