2003 Hummer H2 window and wiper problems

VISIBILITY/WIPER

While driving in extreme rain downfall at night my windshield wipers stopped functioning. I could not see the road. Luckily I had just exited the highway when this happened. Therefore I was able to move over to the side of the road turn on my hazards and wait an hour for the rain to settle before driving to a near by gas station. Otherwise a fatality would have been likely being on a busy interstate should the wipers failed to function then. That wipers do not work and the Hummer can not be driven when rain is expected. I heard a recall had been issued for wiper malfunction. However when pulling up any recalls from my vin nothing shows but I have seen recalls for this situation and for the same make model and year. Please advise. I have given the vehicle to my 16 year old son a soon to be new driver and is excited to start but I must get this safety isssue taken care of first.

ONE EVENING WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN ON A LOCAL ROAD HEADED HOME MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WHICH OFCOURSE WERE IN OPERATION SUDDENLY STOPPED STUCK IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION I IMMEDIATELY HEARD A SOMEWHAT LOUD HUMMING NOISE SOUNDING AS IF IT WERE COMING FROM INSIDE THE UPPER DASHBOARD I COULDN'T SEE TO DRIVE AS I NATURALLY RESPONDED TO THE WIPERS SUDDENLY STOPPING AND IN THE UPWARD POSITION MAKING IT HARD FOR ME TO SEE WHILE DRIVING, I QUICKLY TURNED THE KNOB ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL WHICH OPERATES THE WIPERS SPEED AND ON & OFF FUNCTION IN HOPES IT WOULD BRING THE WIPERS DOWN TO THE RESTING POSITION ESPECIALLY IF TURNED OFF HOWEVER EVEN THOUGH I TURNED THE KNOB TO THE OFF POSITION THE WIPERS REMAINED FROZEN IN THE SAME UPWARD STATE AS WHEN NO LONGER WIPING BUT THE HUMMING NOISE STOPPED. I QUICKLY PULLED OFF THE ROAD TURNING THE WIPERS ON AGAIN I COULD HERE THE HUMMING NOISE BUT THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STILL FAILED TO MOVE. WHEN I TURN THE WIPERS OFF AGAIN NO NOISE COULD BE HEARD AND YET STILL NOT MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN MOVING THE WIPERS WHICH STOPPED WORKING WHILE IN THE UP ON WINDSHIELD POSITION. AFTER TOGGLING AROUND WITH THE ON AND OFF KNOB AND THE NOISE COMING ON AND OFF IN SEQUENCE WITH BUT NOT THE WIPERS I CONCLUDED THAT THE MOTOR WAS THE NOISE I WAS HEARING ESTABLISHING IT STILL WORKS HOWEVER NOT MOVING THE WIPERS IT IS INTENDED FOR. A WORKING WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR OR WHATEVER OPERATING MECHANISM BUT NO FUNCTIONAL WIPERS. THEREFORE I CAN NOT SEE ANYTIME DRIVING AND ALONG COMES THE RAIN FOR IT QUICKLY IMPAIRS THE VISIBILITY TO SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD TO SEE THE ROAD OR TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF YOU MAKING EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND PUTTING OTHER DRIVERS AT RISK ESPECIALLY IF ON THE HIGHWAY DOING FAST SPEEDS AND/ OR A PLACE WHERE IT IS NOT EASY TO PULL OVER SUDDENLY MAKES VERY STRESSFUL AND INCONVENIENT

I WAS DRIVING HOME AFTER WORK AND IT STARTED TO RAN. I TURNED ON MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND THEY WORKED FOR A SHORT TIME THEN JUST STOPPED. I TURNED OFF THE WIPERS AND TRIED TO GET THEM TO RESTART, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED SO I TURNED THEM OFF. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEY CAME BACK ON AT HIGH SPEED AND I COULDN'T TURN THEM OFF ; THE WASHER FLUID STARTED SHOOTING OUT MASSIVELY UNTIL IT WAS RESERVE WAS EMPTY. MY WIPERS STAY ON CONSTANTLY AND ONLY TURN OFF WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF. THE DEALERSHIP (VERA HUMMER IN PEMBROKE PINES FL )STATES THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE COVER BUT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE MOTOR, I AM RESPONSIBLE. THAT IS NOT RIGHT THIS IS A DEFECT AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE HUMMER MANUFACTURER.
