NHTSA Complaint #10141824 — 1997 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500

IT WAS RAINING,I TURNED ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS,THEY ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED WORKING,THEN STARTED WORKING AGAIN. AFTER THE RAIN STOPPED I TURNED OFF THE WIPERS BUT THEY WOULD NOT TURN OFF AT ALL. I HAD TO STOP MY TRUCK AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE FOR MY WIPERS TO STOP. I CHECK FOR A RECALL AND TO MY SURPRISE THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE CONTROLLER CIRCUIT BOARD FOR THE SAME YEAR OF MY TRUCK. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID TO BRING MY VEHICLE IN. WHEN I TOOK THE TRUCK FOR A SERVICE RECALL,THEY CHECKED THE VIN# THEN ADVISED ME THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY TRUCK. I SAID THERE WAS A RECALL AND I WAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THE RECALL. THE SERVICE DEPT. SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I CALLED GENERAL MOTORS THEY SAID THAT MY TRUCK ALTHOUGH IT IS THE SAME YEAR AND HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS AS THE RECALL,MY TRUCK IS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. *JB
