Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My wife was driving our 1998 chevy astro van in a heavy rain in heavy traffic near washington d.c. last week. she turned the wipers on. the wipers randomly worked and didn't worked and it almost caused a very serious accident. this random "work/doesn't work" even has started happening more frequently since about 4 months ago. in doing research on the web, apparently gm knows about this problem but will not accept responsibility for the circuit board problem.
