Consumer Description

ON MY WAY TO WORK, MY WINDSHIELD WIPER KEEPS FAILING. IT'S ALMOST 100% GUARANTEED TO FAIL DURING ANY RAIN. IT ALSO FAILS WHEN USING THE WINDSHIELD WASHER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AS I DO ONLY HIGHWAY DRIVING EVERY DAY. I KNOW THAT PREVIOUS YEARS HAD THE RECALL, YET THE 1998 HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED FOR FIX. I REALIZED THIS WAS A PROBLEM DURING THE FIRST RAIN AFTER I PURCHASED MY VECHICLE 2 1/2 YEARS AGO. I HOPE GM IS WILLING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM SOON. I AM SINCERLY CONSIDERING CONVERTING TO ANOTHER MAKER.*AK
