Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a problem with the windshield wipers on my 1997 chevrolet blazer. i called the gm hotline and questioned information about any recalls. i did this due to my problem and a recent conversation with a neighbor who has the same vehicle and had the same problem. however, she received a letter to take her vehicle in for repair. when i contacted chevrolet about this oversight they indicated that my vehicle was not eligible since the vehicle did not meet requirements. it was over the 70,000 miles. however, if i had received this letter when they indicate they initially sent them out (may 2003) my vehicle would have indeed qualiifed for service repair. now i am stuck with the charges to have this repair completed on my vehicle. is there any way that gm can be held responsible? this is the same address that i had when the vehicle was purchased new and i just recieved a notice about a seat belt recall. it seems to me that they are not concerned about this problem nor the fact that due to their neglect to mail this letter, i have to pay myself for a defective part. the wipers have been working intermittantly almost since i have owned the vehicle. for the past two years or so now it seems that they work on occasion. i cannot afford to have them fixed, i just hope that it doesn't rain or they work when it does. *ak
