Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

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. I AM SURE THERE ARE MORE CUSTOMERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE!!!!! TO SAY LEAST. *AK

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? *NLM

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. *JB
