Consumer Description

HAVE A 1997 CHEVY C1500 FULL SIZE TRUCK AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. THEY WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO AND THEY TURN OFF WHEN THEY WANT. ALMOST GOT IN TO A ACCIDENT BECAUSE THEY STOPPED WITH NO WARNING IN THE MIDDLE OF A DOWNPOUR. THEN THEY START BACK UP A FEW MINUTES LATER THEN REPEATED ITS SELF. NOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR 1997 TRUCKS BUT MY VIN# WAS NOT INCLUDED. *NM
