THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND A RECALL HAS BEEN MADE (MFG. CAMPAIGN # 98043) MY VEHICLE'S VIN # DOES NOT FALL UNDER THIS PARTICULAR RECALL BUT HAS IDENTICAL PROBLEM AND VEHICLE DESCRIPTION ON THIS RECALL IS AN IDENTICAL MATCH TO MY VEHICLE. (95 CHEVY P/U 4WD) I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND BECAUSE MY VIN # DID NOT MATCH CURRENT RECALL, THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME. I FEEL THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND CERTAIN VEHICLES WERE LEFT OUT OF THE RECALL THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE APPRECIATED....THANK YOU.

WHEN DRIVING THE WIPERS WILL QUIT WORKING. THE CAUSE OF FAILURE IS THE WIPER CONTROL MODULE. THIS HAPPENED TO ME. A MECHANIC TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS COMPONENT, WHEN I CHECKED WITH THE LOCAL DEALER THEY STATED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I HAD TO PURCHASE MODULE TO REPAIR MYSELF. DRIVING WAS IMPARED AT FAILURE BECAUSE IT WAS RAINING AND IT WAS POSSIBLE TO RESTART WIPERS BY GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND MOVING THE WIPERS. BUT THE NEXT FAILURE OF WIPERS MIGHT HAPPEN ONLY A COUPLE OF MILES DOWN THE ROAD.
