IN BELOW ZERO WEATHER WINDOW WASHER FLUID DOES NOT COME OUT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS IS TRUE WITH MOST GM VEHICLES AND THE AUTO COMPANIES KNOW IT BUT HAVE NOT PUT OUT A BULLETIN. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IF YOU TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT FOR CERTAIN YEARS THE MANUFACTURE MAKE THE TUBE FOR THE FLUID SMALLER AND SO IT FREEZES. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE MANUFACTURERS FIXED THIS ON LATER MODELS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE DEALER WILL OFFER SOME SORT OF CONCENTRATED WIPER SOLUTION THAT WON'T FREEZE. I FIND IT RIDICULOUS THAT I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ON YOUR SITE AS I KNOW AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE WITH GM CARS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
I OWN 2 SATURN SUV AND BOTH HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED CRACKING FROM ROAD DEBRIS. THE DEALER STATED IT WAS NOT A STRESS CRACK. IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT QUALITY OF THE GLASS WAS THE PROBLEM. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS TWICE WITH MY CARS BEING DRIVEN BY DIFFERENT DRIVERS. *AK
