Windshield Wiper/washer Motor problems of the 1997 GMC Sierra

: the contact stated the vehicle's driver side door pins shattered causing the door to malfunction when attempting to open it from the inside. Also, the windshield wiper motor malfunctioned as well. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that the repairs should be covered under a recall. The dealer needed documentation that would support the recall work. No repairs had been made.

The contact stated the windshield wipers work intermittently. He believes it is a problem with the wiper motor circuit board. The vehicle has not been inspected by the dealer.

Windshield wipers failed during rainstorm,after researching this,I found this to be a common problem in which a recall was issued but I never received notice or my VIN wasn't included in recall.

Windshield wiper motor failure on 1997 GMC Sierra pickup truck. Wipers work when they want to and GMC and dealer does nothing about it.

While driving in a rain storm, the windshield wipers did not work. They worked fine as long as it was not raining. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but problem was not resolved.

The vehicle stalled 5 times in one morning while driving to work. The weather warmed up outside and the vehicle ran and started fine. The next evening the vehicle started fine, I got 1/2 block down the road it stalled again. I waited for a few minutes and it ran fine. The next morning it started fine and I drove it for miles, had no problems with it stalling. We called GMC to see if there was a recall on windshield wiper motor, because the wipers would work when they wanted to work. Not when you needed them to work. They had told us that there was also an ignition coil problem with this truck-they called the GMC dealer that was to do the recall work. A faulty ignition coil can give the same side effects as a defective fuel pump. We drove the vehicle to the dealer, when we turned the vehicle off it would not restart. The recall work was performed on the vehicle, but still would not start. The GMC dealer told us it was most likely the fuel pump, the dealer told us the fuel pumps in this vehicle go out "frequently. " but, he offered us to replace the fuel pump for $450. + including labor. Or sell us one over the counter for approximately $425. 00 + tax. And we could install it ourselves. Needless to say, we had the vehicle towed to our house and now are deciding what type of fuel pump should be bought for a vehicle that the fuel pump goes out frequently in. Our biggest concern is that this truck has 85,066 miles on it, and has been maintained to the highest standards. Why are the vehicles fitted with faulty/defective products. The pump can catch on fire, or go out if you hit too many bumps in the road. That is a manufacturer problem of a faulty product. Please let us know, how many fuel pumps we should plan on replacing in the normal life of this vehicle.

Windshield wipers work only intermittently. Also, sometimes they come on when turned off.

Wipers stop working, had to get out of the vehicle and move the electrical contact to the wipers then they come on.
