| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Windshield wipers stopped while driving due to ice and snow. the "transmission assembly" unhooked due to this. an extreme safety hazard existed because of inability to clear windshield while driving. this happened again 2-27-01. there must be a design flaw but gm will not do anything to prevent it they will just repair it when it happens. a second dealer said they are getting 5-6 a week with this problem ( this was dave cross motors 816-524-2233 . i cannot drive this car in snow or freezing rain without fear of the wipers stopping and causing a potentially fatal accident but gm doesnt feel it is a problem "just clear the snow and ice away and it wont happen". i want them to design something to prevent this from happening not merely fix it when it happens. i also wanted this to be on file for others who may have these cars to prevent them from having an accident . thank you for investigating this design flaw. *ak |
