THE BATTERY HAS A SIDE TERMINAL POST. THE POSITIVE CABLE KEEPS DETACHING FROM THE TERMINAL, ALLOWING ACID TO BE EXPOSED, AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE TOWED . DRIVER BELIEVED WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY VEHICLE POSES A SAFETY HAZARD. *AK *TS *JB

WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOP WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 02/03.

WHILE TRAVELING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY. *AK *PH *JB

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS HESITATE AND INTERMITTENTLY FAIL TO OPERATE CAUSING POOR VISIBILITY DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER DETAILS. *PH

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE DRIVER CHANGED LANES AND THE VEHICLES STEERING WHEEL TURNED FURTHER THAN DRIVER TURN IT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE EVO SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *AK

HEATER HOSE ADAPTOR THAT RAN DIRECTLY INTO INTAKE MAINFOLD WAS MADE OF ALUMINUM CORRODED AND ANTIFREEZE LEAKED ONTO THE ENGINE MOTOR. THIS RESULTED IN VEHICLE OVERHEATING. *AK

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY 1998 TAHOE AS WAS RECALLED ON THE 1994-1997 VEHICLES IN REGARD TO THE CIRCUIT BOARD ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE DEALER ON THE ISSUE, THERE HAVE BEEN JUST AS MANY 1998'S AS EARLIER MODEL PROBLEMS. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE GM RECALL THIS VEHICLE FOR THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MODULE PROBLEM TO AVOID ANY FUTURE FATALITIES IN RAIM STORMS.

WATER PUMP STARTE TO LEAK AFTER 2 YEARS WITH A REPLACEMENT FROM THE DEALERSHIP.GASKET ORIGINALLY WAS CORRODED FROM THE DEXOL COOLANT. THIS TIME THE METAL HOUSING FOR THE WATER PUMP DEVELOPED A HOLE JUST BELOW THE SHAFT, LARGE ENOUGH FOR A PENCIL TO BE INSERTED.*AK

CONSUMER'S VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS MENTIONED IN RECALL 98V033000 CONCERNING BRAKE:DISC:ROTORS. DEALER WOULD NOT REPAIR BECAUSE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. *AK

WINDHIELD WIPERS FAIL INTERMITTENTLY. YEAR NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL FOR SAME PROBLEM.*AK
