1994 GMC SUBURBAN Visibility Problems

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORKED AFTER BEING MANUALLY "HELPED" SINCE THE TIME OF PURCHASE, BUT NO LONGER. WHEN I CONTACTED GMC, THEY TOLD ME THE CURRENT RECALL DID NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE. I HAVE PURCHASED THE CIRCUIT BOARD MYSELF AND WILL NOW NEED TO HAVE SOMEONE INSTALL IT. RECALL NEEDS TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL VIN #'S. I WAS TOLD BY THE GMC TOLL FREE NUMBER THAT IT WAS NOT A "SAFETY" ISSUE, SORRY. *NM

Mileage: 18,000

WINDSHIELD WIPER FAILURE. GM REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER RECALL CAMPAIGN 98V150001 STATING RECALL VOIDED AFTER 70,000 MILES. I GUESS THE BARD TURNS "GOOD" AFTER REACHING THE MILEAGE? *JB

Mileage: 131,300

DT: THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WHEN TURNED WILL INTERMITTENTLY COME ON AND OFF. SOMETIMES IT HAS TO BE DONE MANUALLY, AND SOMETIMES THEY WILL NOT COME ON AT ALL. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN STARTING VEHICLE, BUT OCCASIONALLY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOP IN THE MIDDLE. DEALER REPLACED THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR. THEN, RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE, BUT WAS TOLD THIS VEHICLE DID NOT FALL UNDER RECALL DUE TO T VIN. *AK

Mileage: 75,000

DT : WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMITTENTLY OR THEY DON'T WORK AT ALL PREVIOUS RECALLS IN 1998 AND 2003 HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. GMC HOTLINE SAID THEY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, AND THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO DO THE RECALL. *AK *SB *NM

Mileage: 100,000

DT: THE CONTACT STATES THAT HE OWNS A 1994 GMC SUBURBAN. HE STATES THAT HE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH WINDSHIELD WIPER WASHER MOTOR BECAUSE IT IS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. A RECALL WAS ISSUED ON SOME GMC VEHICLES, BUT THE MANUFACTURER TOLD HIM THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUETO VIN. THE PROBLEM STARTED INTERMITTENTLY AND IT BECAME WORSE.*AK

WHILE DRIVING WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED. *AK

PAINT FLAKING. I SHOWED IT TO SERVICE DEPT, THEY SAID GM WOULD NOT REPAIR

DIESEL K2500 SUBURBAN. INJECTION PUMP SUFFERED A PROBLEM WITH INTERMITTENT FUEL CUTOUT. SOLUTION WAS REPLACEMENT OF INJECTION PUMP. REPEATED DEALER ATTEMPTS TO DIAGNOSE EXACT PROBLEM WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL. SEAT MOUNT FAILED. THIS CAUSED SEAT TO TILT ON BASE & TORQUE REMAINING MOUNTS. THE WIPER MOTOR CUT OUT AT RANDOM. GM ACKNOWLEDGES THIS PROBLEM FOR OTHER MODELS, BUT NOT FOR MINE. THIS WOULD CAUSE FAILURE OF MOTOR FUNCTIONS (IN MY CASE, THE WIPER WOULD NOT START IF PARKED, BUT WOULD START IF PULLED OUT OF PARK POSITION). BRAKES ARE THE MOST INTERESTING PROBLEM. WHILE THERE MAY INDEED BE A PROBLEM WITH PEDAL SUDDENLY GOING TO THE FLOOR I THINK THE ACTUAL SITUATION IN MOST OF THOSE CASES MAY ACTUALLY BE AS FOLLOWS. I HAD TO BRAKE FAIRLY HARD IN UNEXPECTED TRAFFIC, AND THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FIRED. I WAS MOVING NOT FASTER THAN ABOUT 50 MPH AT THE TIME, BUT IT TOOK (MEASURED) 642 FEET TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AT NO TIME DID I RELEASE THE ANTILOCK SYSTEM BEFORE THE VEHICLE STOPPED. DURING THIS TIME, I WAS ABLE TO STEER QUITE SUCCESSFULLY AROUND TWO STOPPED VEHICLES, AND TO RUN UP ON A GRASSY SHOULDER AND BACK ONTO THE PAVEMENT. I HAD THE FRONT BRAKES RELINED AND TRUED, AND THE FLUID FLUSHED AND REPLACED, AT A LOCAL SHOP SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE USED (WITH ABOUT 56,000 MILES). APPARENTLY, GM KNOWS THAT IT IS NECESSARY TO CYCLE THE ANTILOCK MOTOR SO THAT ALL THE PISTONS ARE AT THE RIGHT POSITION BEFORE BLEEDING THE BRAKES. IF THE BRAKES ARE BLED WITH THE MOTOR NOT CENTERED, THE EFFECT IS THAT FULL MODULATION OF THE BRAKES DOES NOT OCCUR, FOR SOME OR ALL WHEELS, WHEN THE ANTILOCK SYSTEM FIRES. HOWEVER, THE DUMP-VALVE FUNCTION RELIEVES ALL BRAKE PRESSURE WHILE THE MOTOR IS RUNNING. THE RESULT IS THAT ONLY PARTIAL BRAKE APPLICATION IS EFFECTIVELY BEING MADE -- THIS MIGHT BE ALMOST ANY ARBITRARY PERCENTAGE OF A 'NORMAL' FULL BRAKE APPLICATION -- AND THIS MAY GREATLY REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF DECELERATION SEEN IN CRITICAL SITUATIONS.

CONSUMER NOTICED WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD STOP WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. *AK CONSUMER WAS RETURNING HOME WHEN IT BEGAN TO RAIN. HE TURNED ON THE WIPERS BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. HE TRIED A SECOND TIME BUT TO NO AVAIL. CONSUMER LOST VISION OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO PULL OVER. *PH

CONSUMER NOTICED THAT WHEN USING WINDSHIELD WIPERS THEY WOULD STOP WORKING, BUT WIPER MOTOR WA STILL RUNNING. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHILE TRAVELING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. CAUSE OF FAILURE IS UNDETERMINED AT THIS TIME.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE INOPERATIVE. *AK

Mileage: 66,911

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DID NOT WORK AT VARIOUS TIMES. *JB

THE WIPERS ON MY VEHICLE HAVE FAILED TO OPERATE 3 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. ALL THREE TIMES WERE DURING A STORM. TWO RAIN STORMS AND THIS LAST WAS A SNOW STORM. THE WIPER MOTOR MAKE AN ODD NOISE WHEN THEY STOP WORKING. *JB

Mileage: 150,000

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DON'T WORK ALL OF THE TIME. I TOOK VEHICLE TO A GMC DEALER AND HE SAID MY SURBURBAN WASN'T ON THE RECALL LIST. TS

Mileage: 126,500

WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT START, MUST STOP VEHICLE GET OUT, OPEN HOOD BANG ON MOTOR/CONTROL HOUSING. GETTING WORSE AND NOW FAILURE EVERY TIME USED.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #98V150001 REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. DEALER SAYS MY SUBURBAN IS NOT PART OF THIS CAMPAIGN. HOW CAN I GET THEM TO FIX THIS INTERMITTANT TROUBLE???*AK

NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK

FRONT WIPER MOTOR STALLED DURING RAINSTORM, TRAVELLING 55MPH ON MAJOR HIGHWAY. WIPER AND WIPER FLUID MOTOR QUIT UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE IN OPERATION OR WHILE STOPPED. SOMETIMES A BUZZING SOUND OCCURS WITH THE FAILURE. I DISCOVERED THAT I CAN TAP THE WIPER MOTOR MODULE AND THE WIPER MOTOR MAY BEGIN AGAIN, BUT ITS WORK WILL BE SHORTLIVED. ANOTHER PROBLEM I ENCOUNTERED WITH THIS VEHICLE WAS A MELTDOWN AND SMALL FIRE UNDER THE DRIVERSIDE DASH. THE ROCKER SWITCH THAT CONTROLS THE DOME LIGHT HAS AN "AUTO" AND AN "OFF" POSITION. WHILE IN "AUTO" FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR WITH THE DOORS OPEN, I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE DASH AND THE ROCKER SWITCH HAD MELTED DOWN DUE TO EXCESSIVE HEAT BUILDING UP IN THE CONTACT. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALER WHEN I PURCHASED A REPLACEMENT SWITCH WHO COMMENTED THAT THESE SWITCHES WERE A PROBLEM.*AK

NO SUMMARY LISTED FOR ABOVE VEHICLE. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK ONLY PART OF THE TIME. IT WILL WORK ONE TIME THEN STOP OR MAY NOT WORK AT ALL. I HAVE 2 GMC VEHICLES (ONE 1992 1/2T SERRIA AND ONE 1994 SUBURBAN) AND 2 CHEVROLET VEHICLES (ONE 1994 S10 PU AND ONE 1997 S10 BLAZER) THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK ONLY INTERMITTENTLY WHEN IN USE. THERE IS A RECALL, BUT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT AFFECTED DUE TO VIN.*AK

THE WIPER MOTOR FAILS INTERMITTENTLY DURING RAINY WEATHER RESULTING IN POOR VISIBILITY. NLM

WINDSHIELD WIPERS INTERMITTENTLY DON'T TURN OFF. AFTER A RAIN STORM CONSUMER TURNED SWITCH OFF, AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS EVENTUALLY TURN OFF BY ITSELF. NO CONTACT WAS MADE TO THE DEALER. *AK

INTERMITTENTLY WINDSHIELD WIPERS BECOME INOPERABLE, OBSTRUCTING VIEW OF DRIVER. A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON THIS VEHICLE'S MAKE AND MODEL; HOWEVER, THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED DUE TO VIN.*AK

SYMPTOMS MATCH PROBLEM DESCRIPTION OF CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 98V150001. VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

RECALL 98 V 150 001/WINDSHIELD WIPER WIRING: WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORKING INTERMITTENTLY, NON-WORKING OPERATION CAN LEAD INTO A VEHICLE CRASH. DEALER / MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED, AND INFORMED CONSUMER THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER A RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

GM SAYS NOT COVERED BY RECALL #98043 FOR SAME ISSUE FOR 1994-1996 GMC SUBURBANS. NO SAFETY DEFECT MENTIONED. *AK

FAILURE WAS EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN # 98V150001, EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. I CONTACTED GMC, AND AT FIRST THEY SAID TO SEND IN THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS FOR A REFUND OF THE $72.57 REPAIR BILL. I WAS CONTACTED TODAY AND INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT IN THE CAMPAIGN, AND THAT I WOULD NOT RECEIVE A REFUND. I BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITH THE DEFECTIVE PART, AND SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO THE REMEDY.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD/WOULD NOT WORK AT ANY GIVEN TIME. WE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS RIGHT FROM BEGINNING, BUT DEALER WOULD NOT FIX. THIS ALSO HAPPENED ON OUR 1994 1/2 TON PICKUP (WHICH WE NO LONGER HAVE). *AK

THIER IS A RECALL ON THE 94 SUBURBAN (#98043) THAT DESCRIBES THE EXACT PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING. GMC STATES THAT MY VIN # IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL, BUT THEY ALSO CANNOT TELL ME THE MONTH OF MANUFACTURING. I FIND THIS ALFULLLY CONVIENT FOR A COMPANY TO HAVE A RECALL, YOU AS A CONSUMER PUT YOUR LIVES IN DANGER EVERY TIME IT RAINS AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT, BEING UNABLE TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE THEY SEEM TO WORK AT THE SHOP, AND THE CAR COMPANY STATING THAT I KNOW THAT YOUR CAR WAS MADE IN THE SAME YEAR AS THE RECALL/ THAT YOU ARE HAVING THE SAME TROBLES AS IN THE RECALL/ BUT BECAUSE WE DIDN'T INCLUDE YOUR VIN# IN THE RECALL, YOU ARE NOT PART OF IT. WISH I COULD DO BINESSES LIKE THIS!! *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING-MUST WIGGLE CONNECTOR TO WORK. *AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT TURN ON, EVEN IF CONSUMER TURNS THE SWITCH ON. WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE ACTING ERRATIC, CAUSING POOR VISIBILITY. MANUFACTURER SENT OUT RECALL 98V150001. BUT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED DUE TO VIN ALTHOUGH IT HAS SAME DEFECT.*AK

WINDSHIELD WIPERS ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY, RECALL 98V150001 INVOLVES SAME COMPONENT, BUT DEALER ADVISES THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL, CONSUMER REPLACED FAULTY PARTS AND REQUESTS REIMBURSEMENT. *SLC

WIPERS STOPS WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON ROAD.UNIT HAVE TO BE PULLED BY HAND TO MAKE WORK AGAIN.THIS PROBLEM IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE WE NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL STOP WORKING.

WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN WINDSHIELD WIPERS MALFUNCTIONED WHICH MAY CAUSE VISUAL DIFFICULTY AND A CRASH. CONSUMER GOT OUT AND TURNED WINDSHIELD PIVOT ARM IN ORDER FOR WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO WORK. THERE IS A RECALL 98V150000 FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

MY 1994 GMC WAS SAID TO BE COVERD UNDER RECALL 98V15001, THEN THE DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT (ACCORDING TO HIS COMPUTER). SOME 94 VEHICLES ARE COVERED, AND MINE WAS NOT--THIS IS THE EXACT SAME PART CAUSING THE PROBLEM FOR THE RECALL, AND I HAD TO PAY $104.00 TO REPLACE AN ADMITTEDLY DEFECTIVE PART. I COULD UNDERSTAND IF THE CAR WAS A YEAR OLDER, BUT CARS IN THE SAME MODEL YEAR, MADE IN THE SAME PLANT, ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE SAME RECALL. ALSO, THE COMPUTER FOR THE RECALL INFORMATION IS DIFFERENT AT GMC HEADQUARTERS THEN AT THE DEALER! THEY ALSO WERE DIFFERENT ON ANOTHER RECALL (RADIATOR CAP). GM SHOULD ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECT AND COVER THESE COSTS. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THE PART NUMBER INVOLVED AND THE COSTS AND ASK THE NHTSA TO INTERCEDE TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT--MY WIPERS FAILED WHILE I WAS ON A HIGHWAY IN A STORM, JUST AS THE RECALL SAID THEY WOULD AND THEY SHOULD BE COVERED. THANKS, MIKE WATERS. *AK

WNIDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF OPERATION. AFTER PUSHING THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS MANUALLY THEY CONTINUE TO WORK AGAIN. DRIVER ALMOST HAD ONE CRASH BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER/MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED ABOUT THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER, THE TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL # 98V15001, WINDSHIELD WIPER WIRING DUE TO VIN. *AK

THE PROBLEM WAS OCASSIONAL, NOW IT IS COMPLETE FAILURE. THERE IS CURRENTLY A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE 1994 CHEVORLET SUBURBAN- FOR WINSHIELD MOTOR FAILURE, HOWEVER WHEN I CONTACTED GMC, THEY TOLD ME IT DID NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS COMPLETELY CUT OFF WHILE WORKIING,AND SOMETIMES THEY DON'T EVEN COME ON.DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT HIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED UNDER RECALL 98V1500000 DUE TO VIN. *AK

I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM STATED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID #: 98V150000. MANUFACTURER CAMPAIGN # 98043. WHEN I CHECKED WITH MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE ID NUMBER WAS NOT COVERED BY THIS NOTICE AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT A GREATER NUMBER OF VEHICLE NEED TO BE COVER AS THE PROBLEM STATED IN YOUR NOTICE IS EFFECTING MY VEHICLE.

WIPER MOTOR WOULE STOP RANDOMLY AT ANY SPEED, TEMPERATURE, WEATHER CONDITION, BUT LESS LIKELY IN EXTREME COLD. WIPER WOULD STOP DURING A RAIN STORM , ON A NARROW FREEWAY, LATE AT NIGHT. REPLACE MOTOR TO NO AVAIL, AFTER CONSIDERABLE DISSASEMBLE AND RE-BUILDING ATTEMPTS; FOUND IT TO BE A GROUND PROBLEM, A SEPERATE GROUND FROM THE MOTOR HOUSING TO THE VEHICLE BODY. THE RUBBER MOUNTING TO REDUCE THE NOISE AND VIBRATION TO THE PASSENGER INTERFERED WITH THE GROUND. IT WAS RANDOM AND DEPENDED UPON THE MOTION OF THE MOTOR ROCKING ON THE RUBBER FEET TO OPEN OR CLOSE THE CIRCUIT. SOLUTION TO MOVE POSITIVE WAY TO ENSURE THE GROUND IS ALWAYS ESTABLISHED, REGARDLESS OF THE MOTION OF THE MOTOR.

RIGHT REAR WINDOW SHATTERED BECAUSE THEY WERE DEEP TINT WITH SOLAR RAY.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ONLY WORK AT INTERVALS WHICH IS VERY HAZARDOUS IN RAINY WEATHER CONDITIONS. *AK *SLC
