ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON MY 1997 S10 PICKUP BEGAN TO INTERMITTENTLY MALFUNCTION (THERE HAVE BEEN 4 INSTANCES OF THIS SO FAR). IN MY ENSUING INVESTIGATION OF THE PROBLEM, I LEARNED THAT THERE IS A RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. ON 9-8-2004 I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SOUTHVIEW CHEVROLET IN INVER GROVE HEIGHTS, MN TO GET THE WIPER MODULE REPLACED. AFTER ENTERING THE VIN NUMBER INTO THEIR COMPUTER, THEY TOLD ME MY S10 WASN'T ELLIGIBLE TO HAVE THE REPAIRS DONE AT NO COST TO ME. EVEN THOUGH ONE OF THEIR DOCUMENTS STATED THAT THE RECALL WAS FOR BEGINNING OF PRODUCTION TO END OF PRODUCTION, THEY SAID THAT THE RECALL EXPIRED 2-29-2004. I THEN CALLED CHEVROLET'S 800-222-1020 NUMBER AND ASKED 2 PEOPLE WHY I WASN'T NOTIFIED OF A RECALL, AND HOW CAN A RECALL EXPIRE. I WAS ISSUED A SERVICE REQUEST # 1-257047512, AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT A RECALL, BUT WAS A SPECIAL POLICY THAT HAD THE ABOVE EXPIRATION DATE. FURTHER INVESTIGATION BROUGHT ME TO YOUR WEBSITE WHERE I FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V159000 WHICH REFERS TO A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM ON 97 S10 CHEVROLETS AND, FUTHER, REFERS TO GM RECALL NO. 03023. CHEVY SEEMS TO BE USING SEMANTICS TO GIVE ME THE RUN-AROUND SO THEY WON'T HAVE TO REPLACE MY WIPER MODULE. I PLAN TO WRITE TO THE CHEVY CEO TO BITTERLY COMPLAIN AND TO LET HIM KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE CHEVYS FOR ME. IF I GET NO SATISFACTION FROM HIM OR AN UNDERLING, WHAT OTHER RECOURSE DO I HAVE TO LIGHT A FIRE UNDER CHEVY? THANKS FOR REPLYING TO THE LISTED EMAIL ADDRESS. JON RANDALL. *AK

ON CERTAIN MINIVANS, PICKUP TRUCKS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES WITH CERTAIN MODEL-ENGINE COMBINATIONS, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MAY FAIL DUE TO CRACKED SOLDER JOINTS ON THE CONTROLLER CIRCUIT BOARD. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COULD WORK INTERMITTENTLY OR NOT AT ALL.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR DURING BAD WEATHER, DRIVER VISIBILITY WOULD BE REDUCED, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE WIPER MOTOR CIRCUIT BOARD AND COVER. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 19, 2003. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-222-1020, GMC AT 1-800-462-8782, OR OLDSMOBILE AT 1-800-442-6537.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: ELECTRIC PICKUP TRUCKS. A CONDITION IN WHICH THE FUEL-FIRED HEATER FILL PIPE GROUND STRAP CONTACTS THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE PIPE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS COULD WEAR OFF THE CORROSION PROTECTION ON THE BRAKE PIPE, LEADING TO PREMATURE CORROSION AND EVENTUAL LOSS OF BRAKE PIPE INTEGRITY. WHEN BRAKE PIPE INTEGRITY IS LOST, BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE CAN OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL RELOCATE THE GROUND STRAP ATTACHMENT, INSPECT THE BRAKE PIPE FOR WEAR, AND REPLACE THE BRAKE PIPE IF NECESSARY.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: GENERATION 1 ELECTRIC LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS. THESE VEHICLES WERE BUILT WITH A CHARGE PORT ASSEMBLY THAT COULD FAIL DURING A CHARGING EVENT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: HEAT COULD BUILD UP WITHIN THE CHARGE PORT AND A FIRE COULD RESULT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CHARGE PORT ASSEMBLY WITH A REDESIGNED CHARGE PORT ASSEMBLY.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRIC DRIVE. RAPID FOGGING OF THE INTERIOR GLASS CAN OCCUR WITHIN TWO MINUTES AFTER THE HEAT IS TURNED ON IF (1) THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS BETWEEN 35 AND 76 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT AND (2) WATER HAS COLLECTED ON THE HEAT EXCHANGER DURING PREVIOUS OPERATION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF RAPID FOGGING WERE TO OCCUR DURING DRIVING, IT COULD OBSTRUCT THE DRIVER'S VISION INCREASING THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: OWNERS ARE BEING PROVIDED WITH A CAUTION LABEL AND SUPPLEMENTAL INSERT FOR THEIR OWNER'S MANUAL ADVISING THEM TO FOLLOW A "STOP AND WAIT" PROCEDURE TO HELP AVOID WINDOW FOGGING WHILE DRIVING.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PASSENGER PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH 4.3L ENGINES. THE FRONT BRAKE LINE CAN CONTACT THE LEFT-HAND SIDE OF THE ENGINE OIL PAN CAUSING THE BRAKE LINE TO WEAR TO THE POINT OF BRAKE FLUID LOSS DURING BRAKE APPLICATION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: BRAKE FLUID LOSS CAN REDUCE BRAKING EFFECTIVENESS AND INCREASE STOPPING DISTANCES RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE OIL PAN AND THE BRAKE LINE. IF THE CLEARANCE IS 6MM OR LESS, DEALERS WILL INSTALL AN ADDITIONAL BRAKE LINE CLIP AND IF THERE WAS CONTACT BETWEEN THE OIL PAN AND BRAKE LINE, THE FRONT BRAKE LINE WILL BE REPLACED.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: EXTENDED CAB PICKUP TRUCKS EQUIPPED WITH 60/40 FRONT BENCH SEATS AND EXTENDED CAB PICKUP TRUCKS AND 2-DOOR UTILITY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH MANUAL LOCKING RECLINER BUCKET SEATS. THE OUTBOARD SAFETY BELT WEBBING ON THE DRIVER'S AND/OR PASSENGER'S SEAT CAN SEPARATE DURING A FRONTAL IMPACT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF A SEPARATION OCCURRED AND THERE WERE SECONDARY CRASH EVENTS OR VEHICLE ROLLOVER, THERE WOULD BE NO BELT RESTRAINT OF THE OCCUPANT AND INCREASED INJURIES COULD OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A PROTECTIVE COVER OVER THE RECLINER MECHANISM.
