I have a 1999 (manufactured April 1998) Chevrolet Tahoe. Was returning home with family in middle of thunderstorm, when windshield wipers totally stopped working. Had a heck of a time making it home safely. Immediately took Tahoe to dealer, where after mis-diagnosis of problem, was finally resolved with replacement of $400 wiper motor. I know that there was a recall of 97 models and this was manufactured in April of 1998. Could there be a link? Chevrolet/gm has stated in no uncertain terms, they will not fix this under a safety issue, and I am on my own. Not only is this the 1st vehicle I've ever had a wiper motor go bad, but that coupled with the recalls of the prior year's ??? that's my complaint.
