MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ONLY WORK MAYBE 50% OF THE TIME. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL BY CHEVROLET FOR THE WIPER MOTORS, BUT I WAS INFORMED THAT IT DID NOT INCLUDE MY VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ALL VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE WIPER MOTORS INCLUDED. *NLM

WHEN THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED, THE VEHICLE STOPPED ABRUPTLY. THE NEXT DAY, THE FRONT LEFT WHEEL STARTED TO SHAKE, THE DEALER STATED THE FRONT ROTOR HAD SHEARED OFF FROM THE MOUNTING BOLT.

BRAKES ON 1998 CHEVY TAHOE FAILED CAUSING REAR END COLLISION. ABS BRAKES NEVER CAME ON ABS LIGHT ON OFTER COLLISION. EXTENSSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE TO VEHICILE SRS SYSTEM NEVER DEPLOYED WITH MAJOR FRONT END DAMMAGE.

THE ORIGINAL FACTORY BATTERY LEAKED ACID. THE DEALER CLEANED OFF FRAME AND THE "STEEL" BRAKE LINE TO THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL AND THEN PAINTED IT. THE REPLACEMENT FACTORY BATTERY THEN LEAKED ACID AGAIN IN 09/00. THIS TIME ACID LEAKED INTO BATTERY CABLE "WRAPPING" CAUSING CORROSION OF THE ENTIRE CABLE. IT ALSO LEAKED ONTO THE COUPLING ON THE "STEEL" BRAKE LINE THAT GOES TO THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. NOW DEALER HAS TO REPLACE THE BATTERY BOX AND CABLE, FENDER WELL AND THE COUPLER ON THE STEEL BRAKE LINE.
