HUMMER Complaints

I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK AND IT STARTED TO RAN. I TURNED ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND THEY WORKED FOR A SHORT TIME THEN JUST STOPPED. I TURNED OFF THE WIPERS AND TRIED TO GET THEM TO RESTART, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED SO I TURNED THEM OFF. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEY CAME BACK ON AT HIGH SPEED AND I COULDN'T TURN THEM OFF ; THE WASHER FLUID STARTED SHOOTING OUT MASSIVELY UNTIL IT WAS RESERVE WAS EMPTY. MY WIPERS STAY ON CONSTANTLY AND ONLY TURN OFF WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF. THE DEALERSHIP (VERA HUMMER IN PEMBROKE PINES FL )STATES THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE COVER BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE MOTOR, I AM RESPONSIBLE. THAT IS NOT RIGHT THIS IS A DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE HUMMER MANUFACTURER. *TR
