NHTSA Complaint #705329 — 1996 CHEVROLET C1500

WINDSHIELD WIPERS OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY DURING USE. NTHSA CAMPAIGN 98V150000 ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE FOR VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR OF MANUFACTURING. HOWEVER, CHEVROLET HAS NOT INCLUDED MY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL. I PAID FOR SERVICE IDENTICAL TO THAT REQUIRED BY THE RECALL CAMPAIGN TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM ON 4/5/99 AND WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT I WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT CHEVROLET FOR REIMBURSEMENT. CHEVROLET MAINTAINS THAT SINCE MY VEHICLE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, THEY HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO COVER THE EXPENSE (CHEV CASE #: 990184509). I BELIEVE CHEVROLET SHOULD EXPAND THEIR RECALL TO INCLUDE MY VEHICLE AND ANY OTHERS OF THE SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR THAT EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. *AK
