Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING TO INDIANAPOLIS ON JAN. 30,2001 FOR BUSINESS, MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD QUIT WORKING PERIODICALLY. IT WAS RAINING VERY HARD AND THEY ONCE STOPPED WHILE PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE CAUSING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE ON TO INDIANAPOLIS, BUT STAYING IN THE RIGHT LANE OF INTERSTATE 74 ALL THE WAY SO AS TO BE ABLE TO HIT THE SHOULDER IF NECESSARY. I HAD TO HAVE THE WIPERS REPAIRED BEFORE RETURNING HOME, AND JUST RECENTLY RECEIVED INFORMATION THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTORS ON 1996 GMC JIMMY. WOULD LIKE REIMBURSEMENT FOR WORK DONE TO REPLACE MOTOR SO THAT I COULD TRAVEL HOME SAFELY.*AK
