I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS WHEN I FOUND OUT THEY HAD A RECALL ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FAILURE. THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT FITS THE RECALL CRITERIA. THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSIS BEFORE THEY WILL OFFER 10% OFF FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS AND LABOR. THE LITTLE MAN DOESN'T STAND A CHANCE WITHOUT THE HELP OF ORGINAZATIONS LIKE YOURSELF. THANKS FOR BEING HERE. GENE SEELIG.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMMITENTLY. MOSTLY RAINING OR WET CONDITIONS. GOING ON TWO YEARS NOW. I SEE THIS RELATES TO RECALL 98V150. HOWEVER, THE GMC DEALER USED MY VIN NUMBER AND DID NOT FIND RECALL APPLICABLE TO THIS. WHY NOT? I KNOW OF MANY OTHERS AND EVEN THE DEALER SAID HE GETS AT LEAST ONE A DAY FOR THIS PROBLEM. HE IS CHARGING $149 TO REPLACE THE WIPER CIRCUIT. OTHERS HAVE GOTTEN THIS COVERED UNDER RECALL. CAN I GET GMC TO COVER THIS?
