Wiper Problems of Buick Rainier

During periods of time with ignition switch on, the wipers will loose the ability to both regulate speed and shut off. The wiper cover ac delco/gm part number 19120931 will fail and loose control of the wipers (fail to shut off while driving). Because you cannot shut off the wipers, the driver's vision is obscured, and the noise from the wipers on the dry glass is very distracting. This will cause drivers attention to shift from focus on driving to manipulating the wiper switch. Gm has not ordered a stock or replacement wiper covers from ac delco, so trying to locate a fix for this problem is very hard. This is a gm design problem and is very expensive to fix. As a minimum gm needs to stock this part. All of these wiper covers will fail eventually, and accidents from this problem will occur.

Buick Rainier 2006: windshield wipers and fluid come on by themselves. When this occurs, the on / off function does not work. They cannot be shut off by controls. They merely start and stop at random. It happens both on vehicle start up when vehicle is in park and while driving. It is very difficult to see to drive.

My wipers come on steady and starts my windsheild washer fluid to come out. I put them in a delayed setting and they still come on full force. I cannot find the problem anywhere and have smelt like something is burning.

Takata recall wiper blades and washer fluid come on by themselves. Happen to my wife today on her way to school and she was terrified because it was hard for her to see plus it was raining. Also I read there was a recall on this issue back in 2004 for the trailblazers.

Low beams on lighting goes out for no apparent reason. This has happened two times in the last two weeks. Dealership says they just can't find anything wrong. Although they had another vehicle there with same problem. This seems to be a recurring problem with gm SUV's. My 1994 GMC did the same thing and I heard reports of other GMC's doing the same thing. Not good on interstates at night.

Windshield wipers started acting erratically while I was driving in completely dry weather. The wipers would turn on and off by themselves and periodically activate the washer which would splash water all over the windshield causing visibility issues. When this was occurring the on off switch would not function and there was no way to stop the wipers from coming on or spraying water. This is a huge safety issue as it is impossible to know when the wipers and washers will turn on start spraying water and block my vision of the road. I searched and found that a gm service bulletin was issued for the 2006 rainer on your website regarding a wiper motor malfunction. I called gm to inquire what steps they would take to repair this equipment malfunction. I was told the service bulletin was not applicable to my 2007 vehicle even though the manufacturing date listed on my rainer is August 2006. They said the VIN # was tied to the year model 2007 and they could not authorize a repair based on a 2006 listing in the bulletin. I believe gm installed one of the defective washer motors in my 2007 rainer when it was built in August 2006 and I want them to cover the cost of the repair.

I have various types of problems with my 2005 Buick Rainier. I have owned it for about 6 years now and it currently has a little over 93,000 miles on it. I am reported the problems to you so that you can document the problems to your list and I am also hoping that you can let me know if there is a recall for these issues? 1. Awd is not working. When there was snow on the ground. It caused me to ditch my car when I was turning a corner at a very low speed. There was a car coming towards me, but missed my car. Thank goodness it did not injure someone, myself or my car. The rear also slides when it is wet/raining outside. I'm scared to drive it when it is wet outside. . . Especially when there is snow on the ground. 2. My drivers side door caught on fire. I just seen that my door could have been covered by a recall, but I didn't know that then. I paid for another door and installation. 3. When I am turning my steering wheel to back-up. There is a grinding noise. 4. My speedometer does not work. I drive with other cars when I can, but I also drive several country roads. I have received 2 speeding tickets due to this. 5. My gas gauge does not work. I keep track of my gas by my current mileage and per gallons of gas, but I have still ran out of gas at least 8 times and. . . Nearly got hit in the rear several times. 6. I believe there is a windshield recall. Is it still active? I do know that all of my car problems are very common with Buick Rainier's and I am hoping that there is active recalls on all of these serious issues and that Buick/gm will gladly repair them. These are all safety issues that could result in fatal injuries. Thank you for your help, research and response. Sincerely, marilyn stowers.
