Two problems related to wiper have been reported for the 1997 GMC Safari. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Windshield wiper module failure, approximately in early 2006 on 1000k trip. Parts purchased module n12463 part number 12463090 from dealer in edmonton at cost of $64. 87 including gst. . Returned home 1000k as dealer too busy too fix, and paid $36. 00 labor to have installed. Total cost for module and labor: $100. 87. My request is for gm to pay this $100. 87 as this should have been covered under a recall notice at any time in the life of these vehicles.
