Windshield Wiper/washer Motor problems of the 1997 Chevrolet C1500

The windshield wipers on my 1997 Chevrolet c-1500 pick-up truck function intermittently. At the first rain of the season, the wipers would not work. Thirty minutes later, the wipers began working again. The wipers have failed to function on six separate occasions now. For an unexplainable reason, they resume working after waiting a period of time ranging from ten to thirty minutes. The truck cannot be driven when the wipers are not working. (safety issue and vehicle code violation) no repairs yet taken. Rumor circulating that gm may recall the wiper circuitry board.

My windshield wipers do not work all of the time they will stop when it is raining start again stop you never know if they are going to stop I was told there was a recall on some trucks the same year with the same problem but not my truck.

While driving in a rain storm a 75 mph windshield wipers failed. As a result, driver's visibility was impaired. A recall was issued. However, this vehicle was not included in the recall due to VIN.

Windshield wipers run intermittently, at various speeds, and do not shut off when the switch is moved to the off position. I have written to gm and been to the dealer about this problem. My vehicle is not covered due to a VIN cutoff in the recall program, even though it is the same defect and part as in the vehicles covered in the recall. This is unacceptable. . Lee anderson.

I own a 1997 Chevrolet C1500 pickup and a 1998 GMC yukon in which both vehicles are having problems with the windshield washer/wiper motors. The windshield wipers never work when I need them to. On several occasions my husband and I have had to pull off the road when it rains due to no visibility. It is extremely dangerous and I don't agree with the gm inspector who said it was not a safety issue. It is a potentially fatal defect in their product and I don't think I should be held responsible for fixing it. There have been recalls for earlier model vehicles, but mine were not included. Something should be done about this.

Windshield wipers stopped mid-cycle; motor stops working; will not restart immediately.

When it rains the windshield wipers don't work. Nlm.
